Event Coverage Fresno Mini Drive By

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by A32Flathead, Jul 5, 2020.

  1. Last week I asked if anyone would be able to drive by my 84 year old Father in Laws place between Yosemite & Fresno, as it was super short notice (and 4th July weekend) understandably it was going to be hard.....

    In the end I decided to cancel it....

    However this morning, I had a message from fellow HAMB'er @Mean Fish who was out with his son and several family members on a Sunday drive.

    Long story short.....This happened.

    Thank you so much.

    Whats that noise?

    Once again, our heartfelt thanks for making his day.

    I would have been there in a heart beat but unfortunately my Impala is still not complete.
    Grats to you for doing that.

    Good for you, there is so much good in this world that's not noticed or mentioned. Two nice cars made a big difference in a vets life.

    I am glad 2 men stepped up when you were ready to tap out. I know it made everyone involved smile, especially your father in law. HRP
