So Hank, are you saying you don't want me to call you and tell you what a good time we were having until the rain started?

I guess you did get some of this weather up there too. Still, it was a pretty good day for the most part wasn't it?

I got there around 4:45 AM. Real nice morning. Had a good parking spot rite on the main drag. I carried some boxs of t-shirts for the organizers. My buddy from A&A Machine shop brought his trailer with the race car, 3 engines on stands, the radiaror system for running an engine, canopy, chairs, tables, 6 sets of heads, and misc stuff. I worked up a sweat helping unload all that stuff. I cut my elbow pretty good this morning. Didn't realize it was bleeding. I had blood all over my pants, combined with the junk from unloading the trailer. I looked like a street bum. We came home at noon. Took a shower, clean clothes, and went back down.
Ric kept us updated on the weather. He has some fancy phone thing that has a live radar. It was a real nice morning and early afternoon. I got home just as the rain hit. Last edited by FlintTony; 08-20-2011 at 06:26 PM. |

I ran out of space..
Lots of nice cars. I didn't see all of them. Had a chat with Don Garlits. He likes the hemi in the hot rod. Wish you and Lynda could have been here. Clutz. Didn't hear from Ray. |

Sounds like you had a busy morning/day. Also sounds like you had fun before the rain began. Did you guys get the wind and lightening like we had in Birmingham.

I didn't get much lightning here, but the wind was strong. It's all cleared up now. They canceled the rest of the night for the Bricks. They said because of the weather, but after the last 3 nights of the black hood-rats and black gang-bangers being out of control, we all know it wasn't the weather. The organizers of the cruise, the down-town merchants, and the cops had an emergency meeting this morning with the Mayor to discuss the hood rat problem. I didn't hear the outcome of the meeting, but will know tomorrow.The stinkin low-lifes ruin everything they can in this town.

Sounds like you had a good day, sorry we missed it. Ray did call me yesterday, he was shopping for a new iron. His old one broke and he had some shirts to iron. If it weren't for those darn shirts I'm sure he would have gone to back to the bricks.

Shopping for an iron? If I EVER needed an iron, the local hardware sells them. 5 min shopping trip for me.
