Got there Thursday at noon. Walked all the vendors and got the lay of the land so to speak. Met up with Brad who graciously let me share a room with him. Went back Friday and walked it all again in the heat. Since I had never been before didn't want to miss anything. Watched half the Ebody people under the hood of Brad's car trying to sort him out. It was really great to see everyone helping one of their own. chryco psycho tweaked my car for me and now it runs a heck of a lot better and better gas mileage too!!! He even adjusted my door latch for me cause he said it didn't work right. I didn't even know it could be adjusted.
He then wanders off to the next car down the line and started fixing stuff. All he needed was a cape and a big S on his chest. Most gracious help out anybody kind of guy I've ever seen. Many thanks from me.
Friday night pizza and beer at the hotel. Great time had by all. No one went skinny dipping in the pool which was a good thing by the look of most of these guys. viperman and his wife were great hosts and their adorable daughter is a trooper of the first degree, she took the heat better than the rest of us did. Later Friday night brad and I walked over to the local diner for a snack. Steak and cheese subs which were great. We walked back to the room and all he'll broke loose with my stomach. I destroyed the bathroom
It was horrible, even MY Eyes were watering. Was waiting for Brad to throw me out it was so bad in the room, but I think the noxious odors made him too weak to get up and toss me out.
4am brads up to work on his car (personally I think the lingering odor drove him out) and. I went with him to hold the flashlight. Car was patched up, and back to show for Saturday. Walked all over the place again, had a great lunch provided by viperman and some more beer. Late afternoon I decided to get out of dodge and head home. My stomach was flaring up again and didn't have the heart to torture Brad thru another night. Drove the 3 hours home and it ran great thanks to Chryco.
Being a new member I must say this is the best group of people I've ever seen. They made me feel welcome and introduced me to everyone and made me feel at home. Thank you everyone for all the hospitality.
I will now to go back to downing more pepto bismol because that cheese steak is still talking it me.
