Default The "Made It Home Safely" Thread

This was the best gathering I have been to yet. Hope everyone gets home safe and looking forward to catching up again next time. BTW, I arrived home safely and one of those Canadian Ketchup Flavored Potato Chips ended up in the trunk of my car...LOL

Dropped my dad off in Asheville, made it to Charleston in a rather short time. Little black Cavalier in front of me wanted to lead a cannonball run down I-26; works for me.

Time for dinner and beer.

Glad to see that everyone had a great time. The dates are set for S's at the Gap (aka known as "THE Fall S2000 Event"). I'll post the information tomorrow. (oh, I left around 8:45 and got home just before 5:00pm. Safe and sound and already missing all the camaraderie and conversations and THE PEOPLE).
