This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things.

    Hit Woodward the 16th and then hit Flint's Back to the bricks on the 17th.
    Woodward is like a parking lot on the 17th.

    None like the YouTube shows I have seen for sunny Cal.

    What a show this turned out to be. 3/4 mile of city street with cars lining both sides both north and south of the Black River draw bridge.
    They gave a ruff guess of 600 Plus Cars and Trucks from both the USA & Canada.

    Parking in the morning was a huge cluster thingie. Arrived at 6:30 AM and was not parked untill after 8:15 AM.
    We were Preregistered too.

    Lots of gripping about that, I believe the last car was not parked till after 11:00 AM, Maybe it was Noon.

    I will post some pictures soon.
    We are attending another show tomorrow.

    :D Al

    I stopped by your car but I did not see anyone around. They are trying to grow the show even more. It was supposed to be about 700 cars...

    Ya took a really long time to walk the 3/4 mile take pictures and say high to old friends from Canada. Had lunc h at a Pizza place on the south end.

    We have decided this one was our last show there. I was not happy about how long it took to get parked after preregistering.
    I feel we should have been allowed to enter different then those who did preregister.

    Looks like next year we will do ther capital city show.

    Paul Murry does a nice you tube of the show every year. You can tell we were not around or that guy would not have been useing our car as a leaning post. We are at 2:21 in the vido , our canadain frinds are across the street with their Pontica.
