Joe, Yes, I did make it down there. I got a little late start because of an alarm problem. I got there around 6:30-ish and as you saw the parking lot was jammed. I did one pass through it and couldn't find a spot to park so I parked across the street and came over to look at cars and for you guys. Why didn't we exchange phone numbers!?!? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] We'll have to for next time. I did connect up with the other Mark S. (Shepard) and caught up on things. I was near his Nova when I heard the front hood close and spotted him getting in. I thought it was you Joe. For some reason I was thinking your Nova was brown. Mark straightened me out on that. I did see your car though when you drove past me on your way out. It's a nice gathering there and from what some other guys were saying it was a little busier now that Car and Coffee is down for now.

Mark, nice to meet you and hang for a little bit. Thanks again for the help offer on my car. I did make it back without a problem. Tomorrow I'm going to dig into why it seems I may have lost a cylinder. I'll start with the plugs work backwards from there. I'll let you know what I find.

All in all it was a nice trip down and back and there were some cool cars there. In the haste of getting out the door I left my camera at home, but I took a few pics with my phone. I'll see how they look and maybe upload them later. Even when I have my camera sometimes I don't take very many because I'm too busy socializing. Maybe Bruce just needs to go to every show there is and take all the pictures for all of us! That's it for now. Oh, yes, Happy New year to everybody! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
