Picture Thread : S.Fix American Graffiti Car Show, Modesto CA

OK, I'll start the picture thread documenting the events this last weekend with a few teasers. I didn't take many photos. More photos to follow in the VGOFL soon. Lot's o' fun, food, and beer.

Yes, Mr. Bulldog was actually humpin' that poor boxer. "Honey, grab the camera"......

Waldopro, WTF are you doing to poor Mr. Chicken?

Just a few comments on last weekend's activities. Thanks to everyone who came to Mo-town for the Graffiti weekend. Since everyone pitched for the potluck and SacBill worked the BBQ, hosting was the easy part. As a bonus, it was soooo cool seeing all the Mustangs (and Crusty's SHO) parked around my house.

How'd you guys like Friday night's cruise? There were a ton of cars and trucks. Since traffic was only going one way, I enjoyed driving on the wrong side of the street.

The final count for registered cars was about 780. I was bummed they parked us in the dusty overflow lot. The wind, which was unusual, didn't help. Of course after we were all set up, they realized their mistake and offered us a better spot. I'm sure they won't use that lot next year.

Yesterday, was really mellow. About 1/3 of the cars returned, so there was a lot of room to park in the main area. Not windy at all, but warmer. Beer took care of that, though.

It was great to see everybody, including JohnPro, because whenever we get together, I laugh my a$$ off. Honorable mention to David67 and his wife Jennifer, for making the drive from Long Beach CA.

Thanks for talking me into going. I had a good time, except for my allergy attack that wouldn't quit! o

And I got to practice my parade wave during the cruise. :lol

You forgot to mention that Jeff brought his sailboat miss-interpreting the word 'Cruise' on Friday.
