To fill in those that were not in attendance at the 2006 gathering in PF, it was announced that the 2007 gathering will be in the western half of the US. We've been on the east for 4 years, so it's time to give the western members a chance to attend an annual gathering. More details to come...

I'm waiting and waiting for this. I will make an effort to drive out there with the '82. Just need to finish paying off the bills from our gathering in PF and make sure nothing goes wrong with the vette. Are we there yet!!!

Adam....you're such a tease!!

You're gonna git all these folks wound up a year ahead of time. Maybe that will give some of us time to actually finish the winter projects we started last year!!

Oh...are we there yet?

I have put it on my 2007 calendar.
Just need to fill in the details.
When? Where? Route? Caravan? Budget? Side trips?
I'm getting excited already.

Trevor, I'll ship it to Tacoma again that's were my employer has a ships Terminal. We can meet there and drive to Portland, there is a great Sea Food Restaurant in Portland that is worth going too. Let's see your out of Alberta, we should wait and see were the 2007 gathering is going to be and then make some plans, sorry you missed the last one, I don't think thay can get any better, but, I hope so. Let's see what adam comes up with and then we will start getting the plans down for the Caravans( motorcades ), This time I want to have the most cars with me..It's the most fun..Terry

Tacoma/Seattle Washington has alot to offer. The LeMay Automotive Collection (Largest Privately Owned Car/Automotive Collection in the World) is a site to see. Harold LeMay is in the Guiness World Book of Records and amassed this collection by collecting garbage 10th Largest Trash Collecting Company in the US.

They may not have "tail of the dragon" but i personally know several vetters who want to run a stretch of "route 66". Wouldn't a long caravan cruis on route 66 be a lifetime adventure, i hear there a a lot of vintage (restored) tourist traps along some of the route.

I think it's great that Adam is researching the site early-the sooner we know the better we can plan our MONEY and route of travel,as well as planning vacation time off to alow for a long leasurely cruise with plenty of stops and site seeing pictures.

I thought it was a great idea when he first talked about it and I think it's still a great idea. Wife and I will be where ever it is, with or with out car. Do the plane and car rental if necessary. I found out it's really about the people. It'll taake us a year to get over last year, but , what the hell I got nothing better to do. Of course, driving sounds intresting. Could meet up with X and make a cannonball run for it Get Hank from Canada and make it one heck of a drive. I'm sure Mike would be up for it. Maybe talk Larry and Connie to join in too. Driving some of Rt 66 would have to be part of the trip. Gosh I'm shacking with anticipation already. Damn there goes the rest of my year shot to hell.

the people in the east coast might get together and have a car carrier deliver their cars to the site- fly to the site or charter a bus (what a party) then they can pick up their cars at the site drive durring the event then ship it back home -- this case as strange as it sounds can be cheaper than making the long drive.

It's one heck of a lot more fun to drive across this beautiful country with some great Corvette friends. Oh the fun we can have. With this much time to plan it will be a great trip. No matter where we go, I know we'll have a great time.

I'm with chucks7d8.

I bought my Vette to drive it. That's the fun part.

We can all meet in St. Louis and caravan on Rt. 66 all the way to CA. Just have to allow an extra two weeks for the travel time.

Maybe drive a couple hundred miles on the famed blue road, just so we can say we did it, then get back on the Interstate and make up some lost time.

Do we have dates set yet?

We are planning things all over next spring and summer and would hate to double book with another event and have to miss it.

I just found out I might have to miss the C3 Extravaganza now . Suzy will be in Baltimore that whole week. Play it by ear time again..
