We are doing Knoxville, Springfield and the Nats for sure. Also have quite a few shows and cruises within 100 miles of Memphis, plus our Corvette club either puts on or helps with area shows. May also do the Frog Follies, but not sure.

Nats East, a couple of events down in Maryland, just about all events hosted by Motor Menders of York, maybe the Frog Follies, and maybe the Turkey Run. That's about it for now. Might add some more later.

Not hot rod related, but Victoria and I will be driving out to Springfield, MO (Ava, MO, actually) in mid-May for our niece's high school graduation. We asked the school to put graduation off until July for Hot Time but they wouldn't! What nerve!

Now that it's finally too warm to snow, it's raining every other day. I guess we'll get there eventually.

Had the first of about 30 scheduled Wednesday afternoon/night cruise-ins yesterday, with the Tri-State Drive-in Cruisers. Seemed like about 200 cars. Most of them were the muscle car types.

I'm planning to attend the Back to the 50's in St Paul, Mn. Then Springfield, followed by Nationals in Louisville, one of my kids lives near Louisville will be nice to see him again. I'm really looking forward to this Summer.

Finally got my little Nova (Ruby) out for a nice little 100 km drive yesterday. Roads were a little bumpy from Frost Heaves but I Loved every minute of it . She was purrin' like a kitten. I know I've only got a muscle car for now, but sometimes I pretend I'm in a '32 coupe or a '41 Willys or a 'T' bucket or................................

Could anyone comment on the Show-Me Rods car show in June? Never been there but may consider this for an early June outing. Is this Rods only or an open show? Thanks.

Will definetly be checking out the Atlantic Nationals in Moncton New Brunswick this year July 10 - 13. I think if you tune into todays episode of My Classic Car they are going to air a segment on last years Nationals. Check it out and plan a trip to the Great White North. Would love to meet some of you folks!

Dave.............................Whats a trailer? If your talking about one of those things some people use when their car breaks down, don't worry, the o'l panel is roadworthy.


If it does break down I'll just pull it to the side and leave it.


Counting the days till K'ville!
