Oh, I take that back then. Maybe it was the one before that you missed.

Yeah, I think you were.

Unless they had a secret one and didn't tell either one of us.

Hey guys, remind me on Sunday night that I have an idea I want to bounce off all of you.

Don't worry, it has nothing to do with selling candles or cosmetics, the word pyramid will NOT come up, you will not have any body part surgically removed, etc etc etc.

As in Ponziac, I assume??

By the way, who's bringing a camera on Sunday night? Seems to me that last time we were digitally challenged when we got to Robin's...

CrCas and I may be a little late. He's coming here first and then hopping in with me. We have a little bit of stuff to do before we can leave and when he called me at about 1:15 he was still 1/2 hour on the other side of Fargo. I estimate his arrival here at close to 6 because he said the road is bad. He was right at the part of the Interstate that was closed twice last week, and he said he could see why.

Yes, when the pics show up we will be able to show the stash of old plates that Ahnuld was kind enough to distribute free to all who wanted one.

I think all the rest of the guys were "verterans" weren't they?

It was definitely good meeting everyone, pontiax and his boy came by and checked out my car afterwards seeing as i saw his already. hopefully some who got some plates donate some $  to the site, and the DR got the nicest one seeing as he drove a little further.

Same question I have!

One of our best turnouts ever, pictures were taken when all of us (I think it was 13) were present and someone has dropped the ball on posting them. I won't name him just yet, but he better post soon!!!

Yes, braving the treacherous driving conditions to deliver a prized Acadian window to Carl and meet a great bunch of guys was all worth it.

My wife, dana, loved the recount of the border stories and negotiating with the inn keeper stories...

What a great memory this will be!

Yes, I forgot to mention I had purchased a replacement left side door glass for my 65 from a man I know in St Cloud and the "Doc" was good enough to pick it up and deliver it in person.

Apparently the people at Customs have a hard time understanding that yes, people actually do drive almost 400 miles one way to attend a Manitoba Canadian Poncho coffee night at Robin's.....

My question would be more like "How could anyone resist doing that???"

The US Customs guy had the same disbelief. He did start to get it when he realized that Canadian Poncho is just like an online car club.

Still had a really crappy section to drive home through before i hit snow. Sheesh.

Next time, coffee is at MY house...
