    My wife wanted to hot a car show this morning and she heard about this church cruise in not far away. It was the 21st annual King's Kruz at Glenwood Church and I have to say it was one of the best events I have attended. It was well organized, great BBq lunch included, over 300 cars and trucks, blue grass music and great people. What a nice way to spend a Saturday morning.

    This is Mrs BB leading the way in the PU and my frogs in chase.

    The event was from 9-2 but we showed up around 8:00 and it was already packed.

    This was Mrs BB's pick. But she wrote down the wrong number so who knows what she voted for. This Packard still won without her help.

    And she won an award for top pick. She about ran to the stage to receive it.

    She is getting hard to live with. I am getting outclassed by my own wife! :cool:
    Good seeing @Taboo56Chevy at the show in his Camaro. This event really brings them in. If you are local, add it to your calendar for next year.

    I will leave you with the "hero shot" I accidentally took while driving home. I had the camera ready to take my picture with Char's truck in the background as I passed her...but she drove too fast to catch her up. She seems to be getting used to her Hemi.

    I need to live out there in your area because we don’t have many shows to go to around here. There’s some really nice cars for sure and I love the pics you always post!

    I failed to include you all in a humorous moment during the awards ceremony. They held it inside the church where the AC was turned up and the PA system was excellent. They began with raffle tickets and some nice prizes including detailing supplies, a 2 ton floor jack and a flamed under-counter refrigerator.

    It was just before they pulled the final ticket number for the fridge that all of the lights went out in the building, (someone likely leaned on a master switch). The lights came back on, they drew the winning ticket, last three digits 6 6 6. In a church building, for a flamed fridge. :cool: You can't make that stuff up. And that is a true recounting, I'll swear to it on a stack of family Playboys.

    Wow, there’s a lot of nice HAMB friendly stuff there. The little roadster with the Cadillac headlights looks like it’s surprised. Lol. Also spied a set of what looked like Larsen valve covers on the small block. Thanks for sharing the pics.

    I hit four car shows in the last week. You would think I would be burned out but it's a lot of fun. I normally spend my weekends and evening in my shop building cars. I have no project for the moment, so I have time for shows that I have never attended.

    Next up is the Slo Poks Uptown cruise this Saturday in Vancouver, WA. A must do event.

    Holy Nice coverage Batman...I believe you've truly planted the seed in the Missus Billy in a most exemplary manner. Congrats to you both on the accolades. Your pick was a class act and there were a number wrestling for that title. Thanks for sharing the event.
