The Ford Barn

Vic,
Where will the Fordbarners be on Sunday for the Miss Shelly award?

Vic Piano · 03-19-2013, 07:55 PM

John, as of now, the revised plan

is for everyone to meet at my house/garage at around 10:00am on Sunday the 24th. We will hang out for a bit (maybe we’ll announce the winner of the "Miss Shelly" award) after that we'll cruise over to Lake Tarpon and have lunch, possibly at the Tarpon Turtle. I did not reserve the pavilion at Fred Howard Park (as in years past), for several reasons, not the least of which was a very limited response from my numerous requests for a "head count".

Anyway, that's the plan.

Hey Chuck, Maybe we can do the bath at Dad's place on Wednesday morning. We've got all it would take to get 'er cleaned up and it's about fifteen minutes from your hotel!

Chuck, (slight change of plans), I'll see you Friday morning at the hotel.

chuck stevens · 03-20-2013, 06:26 AM

I have your cell#, if I get lost in the fog, traffic, or road rage drivers, I'll give you a shout. If I totally miss you the next stop is at GM's? Wish me luck Chuck S.

Chuck, the south bound traffic should be light once you get south of Tampa. Have a safe trip, we'll see you Friday. Vic

On the train heading south. We'll see you Friday AM. Had breakfast with Jeff H. And John M. This morning.

VeryTangled · 03-20-2013, 04:32 PM

Had a great time meeting up with Chuck and Karen (41ford1), and John (JM 35 Sedan) for breakfast this morning. Snapped this shot. Thanks again for breakfast! After food we found a coin-op car wash and Chuck got some of the goop off the car. Then we went for a short visit with my dad, Henryat1140. A good day!

Jeff, glad you guys all had a chance to get together, sorry you, your dad and JM won't be here for the "Bash" this year. One question... what are Chuck & Karen wearing...? They don't look like baithing suits...

VeryTangled · 03-20-2013, 09:46 PM

Hey Vic, First of all, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all your work to pull off the Bash event.

I can't say how much I enjoyed being there last March, it was really a highlight that I will carry all the rest of my days. I would really like to do it again. Circumstances are such that it just wasn't going to be a possibility this time around. I'm sure JM feels the same way. I will be with y'all in spirit if not in person, that's for sure.

The temp was about 35 or so when I shot this photo at about 8:30 am, so no bikini's, sorry. It warmed up, but was windy today so the chill was cutting through us. I'm sure when C & K get off the train it will be a lot warmer, but from my experience even in Sanford it can be chilly in March.

Take lots of photos for us lurkers!

Jeff, That's the plan.

I'm looking forward to meeting Denise on Sunday at Vic's. I hear she makes some really good cookies! Postings on the HAMB and the Barn rave about them. Makes me wonder what's in 'em.

Chuck, I hear that Denise makes THE BEST chocolate chip cookies!! Unfortunately, for me, by the time I find her at the car shows, the other guys have completely devowered them

Maybe this year I'll find her before all are gone

and last year there was a HUGE bag that had your name on them and when we didn't hook up I had to pass them around the campfire on Saturday night cuz I didn't want to have to eat them all myself. Hopefully this year we'll hook up in the AM and you can eat them all day long.
