          Thanks, marking this post as a reminder to myself.

          I won't have my roadster, but can I still join in on the winery tour?

          Ed,

          The shown-n-shine is at a winery and you are certainly welcome. Need you to vote on the cars!

          The fun run is just a drive, no planned stops, also most welcome to participate with whatever you are driving.

          PM me if you are interested in dinner and/or at-shirt. Shirts are per-order only.

          2 weeks to go! Looks like Elaine, Sherry and the Joes have it all set to go. Should be fun, and I don't have to be up early on Saturday for the show and shine! We'll be up next Saturday 9-3 through the show weekend. Anyone with mechanical or travel issues give a call, 908-591-9892
          I'm also starting to clean up the garage, bringing a bunch of parts.
