For those of you that didn't join us for breakfast Sunday morning at Cracker Barrel, you missed one last surprise. Look who joined us (at the far end of the table)
At least we were able to grab their check before they could to show a small gesture of gratitude for such a great time.
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Wow I did not know that!
Fantastic people, yes he wants our buisness, yes corvettes owners have made him very rich. But man are they humble, down to earth, customer (family) first people. I have to say if I need to buy anything for my vettes and Mike has it....I'll pay whatever the price is. I saw first hand the quality and research that goes into their products.
As Mike said we are all family to him, I'm so glad the group was the size it was, as all the folks at mid america had so much quality time to spend with our group.

We all wondered that. We weren't sure if someone told them there were lots of Corvettes there; if they happened to see them and stopped; or as Barry mentioned, it was simply coincidence. Regardless, it was really amazing to see them walk in.

I think Mike and Lori are great people that are really down to earth.....I was just as shocked when I ran into Mike at the Walmart the evening after Moonshine. He couldnt have been nicer and wasnt the least bit bothered that I approached him to say said hello and thanks for having us....
He even remembered and had a laugh with me the next morning when I pulled into MAM
Bummer!...They must have come in minutes after we left!
