Default Mini Meet

Last night Geoff aka Jimmy Floyd was in the area and Randman, myself and CFoote welcomed him. Unfortunately he was working and didn't have any of his Bonne'* but there were 4 of them in attendance. We were on the run and didn't snap many pics. Geoff will be posting them pretty soon I hope.

Being on the run, Chris aka Cfoote and Geoff took off for a quick run in the 95 SSEi. Amazing how well the whine carries, it was easy to tell when they were getting near. The look on their faces said the rice pipe and pulley were worth the money.

We hopped into the 97 SSEi and met Randman at his car lot. Quick ride and maiden voyage of my 97. Checked out the 90, which the body guys are about to start on, the remnants of the 97, and the donated 89. And you know Geoff was checkin out the fire truck.

Back to my place for burgers, dogs and steak tips. Of course there were a couple of beers as well. Being that we didn't get together until it was already about 7-8pm by the time we called it a night, it was close to 1am.

Geoff should be down this way again right after the 4th so we'll get the other MA and CT guys up to my place in a few weeks for a real meet. (Time to show the MN guys that we can meet too!)

We had a great time, Geoff it was a pleasure to meet you and the garage is always open. Anytime you want to buzz down and get some wrench time...we've got plenty of wrenches to go around.

Talk to the darkness...it kept me from taking them. Once Geoff gets a chance I'm sure he'll get them up here.

As for the crew...I'm sure Geoff made it to work even though he was the last to leave. I'm sure Randy made it to work cause he left first. I made it to work as well.

But the one stinkin guy that was only drinking crystal light didn't make it?

LOL.....regardless we all had a fun time. I am assuming the chances of getting any work done on the 90 is probably nill tomorrow, as temps hit close to 100. Wonderful.....and its not even July yet!

I am very surprised you went to work today Mr. Bill, I would have thought you would have called out

Which vehicle is at work today?

It was a good time. The body guys were saying last night they won't be done until Sunday morning. Randy is hoping to get it back to my house Sunday.

Always at work for a day of rest. Tomorrow looks like I'm at mechanic Dan'* to help him do a tranny..then my ac compressor...Ugh.

Commuting...John drove the Accord.
