I plan on attending this event on Sunday afternoon and was just checking to see if anyone else was attending. It is closer for those of us who are from NW Ohio, NE Indiana or South Central Michigan. The wife and I will be getting lunch and then probably leaving around 3-3:30.

For some us it is a short drive (30 minutes for me)
If you do attend remember to bring cash, the diner does not take plastic.

A little more info might help spur interest... www.mvvc.net/EventPages/2010sidekicks.htmlI might go if the weather's nice - any excuse to put the top down. For those who might not know, Osseo is at the junction of M-99 and M-34 about 10 mi SE of Jonesville (Jonesville is about 15 E of Coldwater along US-12 [if you don't know where Coldwater is.... look it up yourself]). About 65 miles from Battle Creek via I-69/US-12. I might take OLD US-12 to Albion and M-99 down, or other back roads. Anyone from Battle Creek who wants to go, call, e-mail or PM me. Will probably leave shortly after noon.

Sounds good, Paul. I'll be driving the blue 'vert unless something drastic happens. Will look for you and tell you about my weight loss (70# since 3/1 - 188# since 2/28)

Paul; Nice to meet you and the Missus today. Thanx for giving me your raffle tickets when you had to leave early. You won a "Karmann Ghia License Plate". So did your wife. So did I. LOL I'll buy you a beer sometime. Sorry you can't make Toledo, but we'll see you again sometime....
Best...

Art good to meet you as well, I may run over to Toledo with the Buick, if work doesn't interrupt. Does that mean you have to buy another Ghia for the extra plate? LOL
