    Well it will be silly now to post my photos as Nick and I have exactly the same taste in cars therefore just about the exact same shots.....well except for I've got a moon-ing shot he doesn't have.:D

    Thanks for posting all these Nick. Gives everyone an excellent idea on how many top quality cars were there on the event grounds.

    Nick it was awesome to see you again and thanks for the pics. Saturday night I seen this Gold Roadster fly by me on Congress and I was pretty sure it was the Tom Branch Roadster so thanks for validating it. I had so much fun over the last week I don't know where to start.

    These kids watched us and waved for quite a few miles... then, when we were paying a toll, one of them held up his Hot Wheels car - how cool! :)

    We also drove through Milford, NE. I went to college there -- at Southeast Community College. They have great automotive and building construction related programs. Snapped a few photos as we drove through the campus.

    The Riv took one of the Lonestar Roundup awards. I've got a shot of Rick and it I'll post later. I got the pleasure of riding in the Riv from Congress out to Ski Shores Sunday morning. You built an awesome highway cruiser.

    Time to wrap up our trip -- we arrived in Omaha around 2:00 pm yesterday, John dropped me off, and had another 120 miles to get home.

    [​IMG]

    What a great weekend - I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
    There is one person we all missed having with us :( Megan, you must go next year -- it sucked that you couldn't make it.

    Thanks for the great trip, everyone! I'm obviously no good at taking photos of people, since there are very few in this thread. I need to get better at that. Well, I'm sure Denise will be posting some of those, including John's ass. :eek:




    ...and last, but not least -- a few things I brought home from the trip.
    Some Norwell and Von Franco artwork and my new 'Ladies of the HAMB' T-shirt. It's so soft, I think I'll wear it to bed haha! ;)
    [​IMG]



    That's all folks! See ya on the next trip!
