Well, unless the weather changes, I am going down to the Marion Fairgrounds Show August 6th. I will probably get there around 1000 or maybe sooner. It sounds like Southern Illinois Street Machines is doing the judging for the show. Its top 50. Should be interesting. Christopher is having a show the same day too, but its looking pretty small. Anybody else game??????

 

[timeless2]

Man, I wish I could visit down there and take part in these cruises.....and get to see my family at the same time.

 

[aaros]

I know, I should.
What else goes on besides the cruise? BBQ? Drink some beverages? Just wondering, as to justify a 8 hour drive for me to get there...

 

[aaros]

well on our saturday show is more of a car show but the one we are wanting to do in oct. will be a cruse to garden of the gods to the camel rock trail. its about a 1.5 mile trail thats a easy hike and should have some good color in the trees then. high bluffs with some easy rock climbing and then maybe meeting back up at mackies (home of the worlds best pizza).

 

[aaros]

september 24 with a rain date of oct 8th for my clubs cruise to garden of the gods.
