    ER...
    I'm going to Santa Maria 3 hours away.
    A 3-day weekend is the closest I'll get to a vacation this summer.

    Four friends and I are heading for So Cal, leaving Australia 27 of may for LA then a road trip, hopping to take in the Ink & iron at Long beach, plus visit a few rod shops along the way Frisco, Vegas etc ending at LA roadster show.
     
  10. Yup, had one all planned out. Two weeks in the nicest place, women, drinks, beach and sunshine but then I thought why just a hot rod vacation?
    So I went instead.

    My big trip for this year has us leaving Illinois on July 1. First night, Detroit for a cruise night. Then Toronto, where we meet 70+ rodders for the Points East Tour. Following nights in Ottawa, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, 3 nights in Nova Scotia, then back to NB for the Atlantic Nationals in Moncton.
    The tour ends there, so I will solo to Maine to visit some rodders friends, then a couple nights vacation in Lake Placid, on to the Syracuse Nationals and then home.
    Three weeks, ?,??? miles.
    See you down the road,
    Phil

    Thinking about going to the Hunnert Car Pile Up near Chicago in October
     
  16. If I can get a new rear end in my 55 by the first week of August, I plan to hit Yellowstone for the 39th Annual Rod Run. I doubt I will actually register for the show because that's not really my thing. It's not exactly H.A.M.B. friendly, but how could you beat hot rods in Yellowstone for 4 days? They say they expect 500 to 700 cars there. I kinda doubt that, but even half that number rolling around in Yellowstone would be cool.

    It will be about 3000 miles round trip and I plan to be camping near Cody, Wy. for a few days before and a few days after. I'll be rolling through the Grand Canyon area, Moab and Star Valley, Logan Utah, Jackson Hole, The Grand Tetons...

    Do you have any more SALT to rub in the wounds. Sounds like a great time, good luck and post some pictures.
     
  30. Can't do too much this year. Just came back from Milwaukee for the first SFCC "Weekend at Jeffy's" Reunion and the S**** Drive. Hoping to make it back for the Hunnert Car Pileup.

    Definitely heading to Atlanta for Dixie Fried.
