However, on the way to the wedding we attended, we did come across a rather large Corvette Show (the signs were all along our route) in Providence, RI. I tried to get involved, but I had to go see some rock (it was stamped "1620").
Are you counting bad luck as just the bad things that happened, or a combination of the good (poker winnings) and the bad combined? Sounds like the bad may have overtaken the good anyway...
Not quite home yet, but should make it before the sun sets tomorrow. We've been through 10% of the USA today by state count.
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Oh and I forgot one that the group did not know either, on Fridays run when we went over the big bridge to see the mansions I had both the kids with me in the bus and ebo woman was alone in the C3.
Well this bridge had construction going on and the pace was slow. As the cars came thru , the construction workers all stopped to look at them, and when the lone female driver passed by they were all yelling at her (long haired blond in a white vette) She was laughing so hard she said the comments were to funny and it made her day!
Yes fellas..... ebo woman had the vette crusin duty on Friday, I just followed in the "Blue Bus"
