LJ, get your ass over to Shermans room. You missed the awards!

Having a great time at Texfest this year, and to think I almost missed it. 30 cars for the car show today!

Yes, thanks for the drinks you sent, Dave! Never would have tried them otherwise. My favorite had to be the Mississippi Mud, followed by the Obsidian Ale, then the Sangria. Overall this weekend though, it has to be Wyatt's home brewed "Bombshell Blonde," then Shocktop Raspberry Wheat Ale, then Mississippi Mud.

A personal Thank You is in order for ///Memo, Ji///m, and Todd(///) for their help in the administration end of things.

A great big THANKS goes out to all you guys/gals who attended and contributed not only your presence but also your hands in
dong so many little, and some big things that had to happen for this thing to come together and be the success it was.

A final Thank You to my wife for putting up with me in the midst of my madness.

Here's her car, which she drove herself and had a good time doing it.

Great event guys - its not so much the cars but the people that make it what it is!

Thanks to all the people involved in organizing it and sponsoring it. Really proud of my trophy :cool:

I had a blast and truly great memories. I will post my album of pics soon we have a few group shots as well! Looking forward to TexFest V.
