Yes!

No bug this time 3 people and only one set of seal belts.

Even more last minute. Got a text from Dawn. She will be coming in with ray a little after 6:30. We (those going to be there tonight) should meet up lets say 6pm at home depot auburn so we know how many we have also so we can cruise together to mel's. See u all there

Sounds like a plan Cliff.

I'll be there.....ROCKIN' the Toyota!!

I have the Honda

I won't make Home Depot, see you all at Mel's.

We will be at Home Depot at 6, will be in the Ford Escape, VW is at Ray's for awhile

We are a VW group and is anyone driving an air cooled to the dinner

So it looks like a Honda Element
Ford Escape
Toyota ???
Dodge for Cliff
Dann in a Mini Van
Matt Ghia I am sure or Massive Ford truck
Cat in a VW Submarine

Ray in a VW air cooled well we will be able to spot him

It was nice to see so many people there for Ray's birthday party. He seemed really happy and surprised to see everyone.

It was a nice time indeed. Until next time

Sorry for the late pics here. It's was midnight by the time I made it home. Had a blast!! Thanks to Kyle for letting me drive Buddy. I really need a Bug.......

Anyhoo, here are the shots I took

For those who didn't attend. It was so funny because when a string of dubs pulled up, the owner came out, told us to park up front and said that he'd get rid of that pesky SUV. Which he did!!



Herbie and his newly finished girlfriend. Meet Giselle!





And the Birthday Boy's car...

A packed house. Mel's was excellent. They took great care of us!



Then we all headed over to Ray's for a peek around his complex. For those of us that didn't make his demonstration day, we all got a little mini-demonstration. Amazing place!

Thanks for being photographer Greg!!

It looks like Giselle! may of had an accident from the looks of the wet spot in front of her. Dann what did your car do. Was it the smell of burning rubber?

That was a blast.

Next time I am not going to let Jenn talk me out of diving May just so we could have air conditioning.

AC was nice last night

It's called windows down, wing windows open and pop-outs out.

Last night was awesome. I know Alex and I had a great time at dinner. I want to thank Ray for opening his workshop up to show us the amazing work he does. What a guy.

Yeah, let's do it again.....soon.

Yeah, sweat, God's best a/c invention. Ahhhhh....

Dann, is Alex your little boy? I kinda got lost on who's kids were who's. I saw Greg has a little one. The other was yours? TOO CUTE. Thanks for bringing them. Thanks everyone for coming, it really was a surprise and Ray said one of the best birthdays he's had (and there's been a LOT of them).

Wish I could of made it, dealing with car problems.

My wife was bummed she missed it. Elaine had a great time, could you imagine a 16yr old having fun with a bunch of old car farts like us.
