| Yeah, I like the thing we've been doing actually. I wasn't trying to step on your toes Billy! I'd be down for some other small different regional things/meetups/cruise nights also...the season's almost coming to a close so it would be nice to hit a few things beforehand... |

Skip the ice cream trip - by the time we get there it's too cold, or too late & we hanging for all of like 20 minutes and everyone splits. Rather spend more time at the park, or at Newick's and be able to actually catch up with everyone that made it. - J |

| I like the omission of Johnson's as well. That place has gotten UBER expensive! I will say that time we did the run up there with the huge amount of cars in single file was absolutely incredible, though. - Quote :

I don't know what I should bring either. I like taking the old car because it will have to be put away for the winter. But not many people ever see the white car. lol |

| Yeah, always starts with good intentions, then ppl slowly start dropping... I have every other fri-sun off. As long as it fall on one I'm not working I'm in. Oh and does the park have public restrooms or are there any in walking distance? Will determine whether preggo wife goes or not.

Let me know what weekends you have off in October. Since we don't have a date, it could help lock one down. They have porta potties at the park, but the restaurant is 2 min away. _________________ 1980 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. 6.0 87k 2017 Chevrolet Silverado LT 4.3 Aluminum V6 (My daily) 2008 Saab 9.3 convertible (Wife's Daily)

| I have september 21-23 and October 5-7, and 19-21 off I have my daughters b-day on one of the days sept 21-23, and I believe a baby shower for my wife on the 21st of October. Fridays are out for me as I get off work at 7am fri mornings no way I'd make it in time, plus I'd be scared of driving 2 1/2 hrs after working 12 hr shift. So basically we have for me: October 6-7th Or October 20th But don't plan around me

| - I hope a date can be arrived at that suits the most possible number of attendies & members. All my B-bodies are currently hung by one issue or another. InlineTube has sent me a set of brake lines for the 96 SS that wound up having the wrong tube-nut thread form for my vehicle. So that car remains on jack stands with no brake system in it. The 96 9C1 has a seized AC compressor & the #2 exhaust port header pipe from Clear Image is split all the way around (noise & fumes). The 88 hot-rod boxy LS-B is back apart for some major cooling & brake system upgrades. The 88 LS Brougham has a peculiar driveability glitch where it intermittently struggles to exceed 40 MPH. Both 89 9C1s are apart for parts swapping and repairs. The other two "recently acquired" boxy 9C1s are not registered yet, and need some repairs as well. The 95 9C1 has lost it's body, bare frame now. The 84 Olds 88 LS Brougham has a clogged cat & in tank fuel sock, & needs a complete tune up. The 02 Dually has a 496CI engine and get 5-6 MPG. My 1990 boxy V3500 Frankenstein truck remains a project for the back burners, not even close to road worthiness. Might have to come up in "old reliable", a Swedish car (940 Volvo turbo wagon). |
