We had a few... new never before seen cars! Bruce, I didn`t see your request for a group shot until I goy home tonight, we`ll get the group shot next time. I apologize if some of the cars are repeat cars, from prior threads...but some cars are just too nice looking and desreve a second, third, and fourth look.

It was a great evening...with great friends and cars. Darren correct me if I am wrong. But don`t friends always seem to park with friends [/ QUOTE ] Dan, without a doubt, that was the best night I've had in along time. What surprised me the most is the fact that my son didn't want to leave. We pretty much closed the place (and did some repairs https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif). The amount of members that gathered in the bank lot was amazing. It was a true family environment. This is what the hobby is all about. |

The "child" heck of a time with all his Yenko.net friends. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif However, I might have to send him to gamblers anonymous as Uncle John and Uncle Mike were teaching him how to toss quarters. But he did win all their $. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif |

Re: Lombard 6-14-08
Yes in deed! There were a lot of great cars at Lombard that Dan and Rick clicked off and many more. Next Saturday night "American English" is playing at the band stand for those in the area that can make it. Weather permitting, this weeks show will bring large crowds and more cars. It is a nice show to see good friends and meet new ones.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

We left right after dinner, and got home just as it started to rain. It rained pretty good in Algonquin for about 20 mins. |

Re: Lombard?

Herd it wasn't that good of a showing,even with American English playing,so you didn't miss anything. |
Re: Lombard?
Hmmm. No bird? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: Lombard?
The "bird-man" called me to see if I was going, but I was up at the lake. I'm not sure if he went or not.

Re: Lombard?
He called. He went for a while. Bloomington this week then..
