Bob, that whole deal sounds great! I won't be there to enjoy it with you guys. The LA Roadster show was my extra big trip this year. I'm trying hard to make Iowa next year.

Bob,
I'm going.  I'll be wearing a street rod shirt too so just look for the guy in a street rod shirt with a gray hair and gray goatee.  Noon, Saturday, Yogi's sounds good.

Had a great time in Des Moines again.  Sorry I missed the meet 'n greet Saturday.  I was there at 5:00 AM Saturday morning.  The ladies were supposed to go on a "ladies only" day Saturday but the lady that was supposed to drive and her husband decided to leave a day early Saturday and head home.  So we went back to the hotel and had a great day.  Went to the West End Salvage store (as seen in the HGTV show West End Salvage) and saw some really cool stuff and met the owner/star who showed us some future car related projects that will be featured on the show.  Came back to the fairgrounds about 3:00 and had a great time.

Another side trip we took was on Thursday the 3rd on the way.  We stopped at the American Pickers place in LeClaire, IA and Mike Wolfe there.  He was nice enough to pose for a picture with me and my 46 Chevy.  He later drove away in his A/V8 roadster.

Gee ....  Sounds like everybody had a good time ... I was at Yogi's at Noon as instructed ... Nobody questioned my "Loitering" by 12:15, so I went for a Burger & Brew as planned ....  8)    

MY BACK HURTS  :!:  :!:   :roll:

Sorry, I didn't make it. I had a belt slip in a front tire on the way--sort of ruined my day.
