Bickford Ford Show

[Luva65wagon]

I remember a couple years ago when John talked everyone in the Skarf show and then he didn't come.

Well, I'm sure we all have run into a situation where we intend to come to a show and something comes up. It might have been (as with a very recent show that comes to mind ) where a person "couldn't come" rather than "didn't come." You still go and have fun and let everyone know to beware... there are Falcons about; terrorizing the pavement!

To the best of my knowledge I'll be there, but my boss is hinting about a show in Oregon () I may have to go to. I'm trying my best to finagle my way around this since I have to go to Vegas for work the next week as well.

Is this a show where we just show up, or do we need to pre-register or call in or something?

[falcon cobra]

Hi gary....it's a just go and show, no pre.reg. it's a nice show lots of cars and all the hot dogs you can eat ,plus door prizes,no less............see ya there.....jh

[MacDee]

What time should I show up?

[MacDee]

I just re-read your first post, John. Says right there: 10:00 - 2:00.

Duh.

See y'all around 10:00!

I've shown up around 9:30 before and they were filling in nicely then. They have lots of room, so 10 is fine.

Still getting mixed messages from work about having to go to Oregon. A big part of me wanted to call a meeting for afterwards, but this indecision from my boss is making it tough. So, anyone checking this know that before too long we'll have to have a meeting. It's been a while.

Well things don't look to shiny for tomorrow! oh well, a wet car will dry

I'll probably be a no show if it's still raining in the morning. I'm guessing it's close to an hour drive for me one way. And it doesn't look like I'll get a chance to give it a good wash and vacuum today if this keeps up. That would mean just spraying it off at the car wash in the morning. Daily drivers get pretty dirty over a couple of weeks.

Excuses, excuses. I need a car port!! They should be mandatory building code in this neck of the woods...

From KOMO weather:

Sunday we stay mostly cloudy, but the showers should taper off a bit in the afternoon. Highs will say in the low 60s.

I'll be there, rain or shine!!

[falcon cobra]

So bring a umbrella, hot coffee,heavy coat and a hand warmer..don't forget the rags and wax for when the sun comes out...see ya there..jh

[Luva65wagon]

I'm packn' up and heading out there. Heck if it's just me, Gary and John, we'll be walking away with a lot of door prizes and awards!

[falcon cobra]

Got rain ? ....we tried.

[MacDee]

Yeah, I got there about 9:35, and, uh, turned around and went home. My wife was even disappointed so we thought about what else fun we could do.
"We could go to XXX," I said, "maybe there'll be some cool cars to look at there." I browsed to the XXX Root Beer web site, and it turned out to be a Mazda show day at XXX! We jumped into our Mazda 6 and headed on over to XXX for lunch. There were a few newish RX8's, an old B2000 pickup, an MX3, a Miata, a couple of second-gen RX7's and a really cool 323 sedan with an intercooled turbo setup. Had lots of good conversation... and a great lunch!
