I did not make reservations or buy tickets this year as I did not think I would be able to go. I had arthroscopic knee surgery 2 weeks ago and was not sure how my 1945 parts would heal.
Started out on crutches and Vicodin. After the first few days I thought that I would not be able to walk around the show field by June 24. BUT - I have been doing yard work and am able to ride my bicycle and have decided to go to the show!
I have been attending every year since 1996 and really enjoy the cars and the people.
I will be taking pics of things that interest me and will post them up here.
I am in a bit of a quandry about magazines though. I usually stop at a booth and extend my subscription and get a couple of free T shirts. I will renew my Corvette magazine but probably not my Auto Enthusiast issues. Auto Enthusiast was formed when they stopped printing Corvette Enthusiast, Mustang Enthusiast, Mopar Enthusiast and a few other mags. I do not like what the magazine has turned into. Don't get me wrong. I like the quality but it now covers too much that I am not interested in. I was told that I could still submit articles. I have not done so as I feel my writing and photography are not up to the standards of the professionals that write for them now.
I will be there Friday and Saturday. I am the one with the camera bag and the limp.
