    Cool Pics Dave.
    Glad you and Martin had a great time. The CWRR was a staple for my family for years. I was at there for the first time in 1975. (I was 6 :) Glad to see it is still going on.

    You guys are just having way too much fun .... if you're going to Willyburg, let me know and we'll cruise around together on the Colonial Parkway, some of the back roads I know,etc. I even know a good place just up the block from me that has good PIE!

    Yes, I did that :rolleyes:
    I just used iPhoto for the effect, and Photoshop to put the logo in.
    You sent me the logos a while back, but it would be great to get them in higher resolution though. :D

    Great Job Heaps. I,m very envious and hope I can make the next PIE run. Dave , I got your message on the social board. I was all set to make the Jalopy Showdown and my daughter-in-laws father p***ed so I had to go to Lebanon,Pa. instead. You guys keep up the good work and hopefully I can get out of the northern tip of the state and meet up with some of the 32nd Va. Regiment.

    It sure sounds like you guys had a rocking day. Great weather, cool cars and the open road. Sorry I missed it. Good to see those awesome rides on the road.

    Speaking of the 32nd Virginia Regiment, The 32 Regiment Flag is in the possession of the Northern raiders ( Rolling Bones) right beside Mr Bones .....

    After the Bones invasion of Southern lines, they returned to the north empty handed so we gave them a priceless sovereign.. You Rebels should all be proud....

    So, finishing the Vicky project and having a driver is a good thing? The concept of finishing something is so out of my realm of thought. Great photos, always fun to see other events.
