Carol and Dennis brought a VERY POPULAR DESERT (over 1500 containers) to the fest which was enjoyed at the first night's parking lot party:

Judging by the way some were staggering later in the evening, I'm guessing they didn't know that Jello had a little something special.

This beauty had real rally wheels! You'd be surprised at the number of young whippersnappers that don't have a clue what rally wheels are.

Seeing the Z-28s at the fest was a real treat:

On Sunday morning, after the fest, Rick/Kerry, Dennis/Carol and Adam headed back to Florida. Hopefully they'll post something about their return trip. Pam and I spent an extra day in Houston and visited Galveston where we saw this strange vehicle:

On Monday morning (5 May) Pam and I headed up to the northwest side of Houston and stopped by Phastek and visited with Justin and Ricardo. The guys replaced my LED mail slot scanner while we were there.

We spent Monday through Thursday at Pam's parent's home in East Texas. We were supposed to take a hot air balloon ride while there, but the weather wouldn't cooperate.

On Friday (9 May) we left East Texas. We were supposed to return to Florida but the Camaro was so much fun to drive, and comfortable, I surprised Pam by heading north. I wouldn't tell her where we were going; but she finally guessed when we got about two hours south of Branson MO. We spent four days there, did a lot of sightseeing and saw four shows. One of the theaters displayed a sign I thought was perfect:

If you've visited Branson in the past seven years you are familiar with a vocal group called "The Six." It is composed of six very talented brothers. Each drives a 5th generation Camaro. We had tickets for their show and when we arrived at the Mickey Gilley theater, all six Camaros were parked in front in prime parking. One of the brothers was getting out of his Camaro and invited us to park our car with theirs. The brothers wear jackets and shirts to match the colors of the stripes on their individual cars.

And finally...
On Tuesday (13 May) we left Branson and took three days to make the trip back to Lehigh Acres. We stopped the first night in Tupelo MS (the birthplace of Elvis) where a tornado had ripped the town apart two weeks earlier.



It was a pretty sobering sight to see and I hope we never see that kind of devastation in our area in the future. The Days Inn we stayed in had suffered extensive damage, but they were able to make temporary repairs before we got there.

Also, The get together in Venice on the May 31st, What do you guys plan on doing once you get there? Is there something going on there that weekend or is it just one big get together and hangout?
It's a get together, eating, hanging out, having fun and lying about our cars!
