I think it was hosted by Rick Hesel in 2004 and that it was in Hagerstown, MD. I don't remember too much about it except that it was a lot of fun. Do you remember it?

Actually it was in Buckeystown, MD, but started in Timonium, MD. We had a nice drive over, including a dirt road excursion. Keith (?), with his F-car, was tail-gunner. Patty and her ex flew in from Cali and rented a Sebring (POS) convertible. There are pictures.

The F-car and Patty's ride:


We really miss Granny:


You and Liz were there:


Lots of folks who are missing now.








Although, there are a few still hanging around!

Well, that was 13 years ago. I even had hair!

That was the first meet that Liz attended with me. It was the first time that she met everyone and became friends with everyone. She's just as anxious as I am for this Spring Fling because she wants to see everyone again.

Gene, those are great photos. Have you got any more? Patty, you must have some. I'd love to see more.

I have more, but most are of the cars in the drive. Let me see what I can find.









That's all I could find.

I don't have any, Rob. It was my first time coming back East for a meet.

Patty, where in Jersey are you? I wish I'd have known you'd be here, we could've had dinner together. We're not heading to Shamokin until Friday evening, when are you leaving for Shamokin?
