Barry thanks for trying to touch up my crunched bumper....

No problem John. You know how much I hate scratches and love applying coverup....Well since you mentioned it...I'll post it:

BTW: PM me with your address, the wife wants to corrospond.
 
Set the record straight!

OK! Here the facts on the Big Kiss.

It was a female worker doing the job.

She worked 12 hours that day.

I could choose our character.

Mac planted the idea in my head.

It was joke a about the "new" fender badge.

After we all took the ride through "plant" there was a display of the kiss toy dolls in this huge bin.

Hershey's people were very very co-operative.

We were parked in the outbound bus (motorcoach) lane.

It was very busy day at Chocolate World.

We turned a lot of heads with that display of Marauders.

People were :confused: as too what/who we were/are?

The most fun you can have with your clothes on.:)
 
We are new to the board and we wanted to let everyone know that we had a GREAT time in Hershey. Everyone was very friendly and welcomed us into the group (it was better than a HOG rally). We have learned a lot from the board and it was nice to put a face with the username. During our 2 hour drive home, we had some fun with a Camaro SS going 120 mph down US 15 until our rpms hit 5500 and then dropped off to 4000, letting the SS pull away. :mad2: We want to thank Bunnyrun for letting us crash the "Raid" at the last minute. Cruztaker ... sorry about the chip in the windshield. What a bummer!

I can figure out a few, but what are the names to the faces in that mug shot?
 
Pictures uploaded!

I uploaded most of what I took... be patient, there are 7 pages of photos and I couldn't shrink them too much in order to maintain some sort of quality.

Looking at some of the metadata for some photos, I see I kept my 80-200mm zoom pretty much open at f/2.8 for some reason. :( That meant a shallow depth of field for lots of photos, so some may look "soft". Sorry.... guess I got caught up in the excitement.

Steve: Excellent job with the photo's! Bravo! Bravo!!
 
Steve: Won't be able top view the pictures until I get home from work later today. I'd like to thank you for you efforts in advance as I know they'll be great.

To ALL:

Sorry I couldn't hang around and have dinner with you at Miller's. Bet you all had a great time. Spent most of the day with all who attended, and I would like to thank you all for a great time. What a great bunch of guys and gals I met in Hershey. I had a great time at breakfast , with the conversation and the parade of Marauders down 422. Leaving both the car wash and hotel with traffic stopped was a blast. Those people must have thought we were nuts! Can't wait till the next meet. Hopefully, the next spring/summer national meet will have a tentative date soon so I can make advance work arrangements. Current job requires all vacartion time for the entire year be scheduled in January. It's not really set in stone, but it does get harder to make changes after the other 15 - 20 guys schedule theirs too. Bristol sounds like a great place to meet.
 
Bristol next baby!

BTW! Rick, (LML),set us up with our own Folder in the event photo gallery...let's start placing pics in there.

I'll start moving some and uploading mine after the boy and I wade thru 2 feet deep by 1 acre of leaves.
When we got home...he said, "what's happening...trees go sleepy?....I go sleepy too!".

Marty,
I'm sending you a few $$ to put towards the dash plaques you and Sarge had made up for the Hershey meet. You guys shouldn't have to eat the whole bill on those. Great job......Thanks :up:
 
Some truck or SUV must have hit me when my car was parked. It cracked my front driver side turn signal and pushed my bumper all the way in. It needs to be repainted or replaced.


Cruz:

781.25.....ask me how I know:alone:
 
Who has the videos of us leaving the car wash and hotel? Would you be interested in putting it on CD and sending it out? I'd be more than willing to cover your cost of CD's, mail costs, and a few beers! Let me know!
