I will drive the Ghia on Friday evening but I am still debating on driving the Ghia or taking Jack, our dog, on Saturday. I do not think there is room for me my wife and Jack all in the Ghia.
No Jack is not going to run a long on the outside Wife will not let me, but if I had a roof rack?

Drove into Kalamazoo this evening to check out the early arrivials and there are a bunch of them already, most of the motels are between 40 and 60% full of some pretty sweet rides. Saw cars coming and going in both directions on I-94 and 131. Sat in the parking lot for about an hour and watched the tire burning get started up until one of Kalamazoo's finest showed up to slow things down. All kinds of cars were out and about, even saw another v-dub a 60's bug going the other direction on Sprinkle Rd. Hope the weather forecast is wrong, but it isn't looking good especially for roadsters, t-buckets and the like. It could get soggy. Well later Kenn

I saw one at the hotel/motel by Horrocks in downtown Battle Creek tonight. Usually during the weekend they are all over the place here too. I sure hope the rain goes away!

Hey ya all, I still plan on being there tonight, tomorrow day and tomorrow evening. Not going to let a little rain stop my fun. I'll bring the pop-up so we can at least stay dry(relatively) and wear my Gortex. Should be there about 5:30 tonight unless it is really raining hard. The forecast for tomorrow isn't looking good we could delay going to the show until Sunday the weather sounds better then. Up to ya all I'll be there both days. But still cruise both evenings. Later Kenn

I would be up for going to the fairgrounds on Sunday if it is raining Saturday. When do we make that call though?
I won't be out tonight but will shoot for tomorrow night unless it is really raining.

Hell its only money. I filled up today@$3.64 good to go for the weekend. And its not raining hard enough to keep this old fart home either. I'm sick and tried of them playing the hurricane card, just to reach further into our pockets. When they make record profits and we stay home, it's not happening this time around, I'm pissed. How would they to get robbed the why they rob us. Later Kenn
