adam_knox Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Sounded like a good night! Couldn't make it, my first day back where I couldn't spread strep throat. Can't believe it rained by you! Gorgeous all night over here! Just out of curiosity, before the days of a/c would you just stay home and not drive anywhere? j/k! The humidity has been crazy the last three days. For a brief moment yesterday I actually wished it was October! Edited June 26, 2009 by adam_knox I wanted to add the j/k notation as to be sure to not offend! Humor has to be carefully crafted, but I'm clumsy when I'm ill! Quote
MacGyver Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 Hi Norm, Where was this cruise? Is it a weekly event? Mark Quote
55 Fargo Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 Norm, sounds like a good time, and some real nice cars:). Now going to a Cruise-in with your modern day vehicles:confused:, isn't that like going Camping at the "Holiday Inn":rolleyes:. The fun is in the Drive Norm, Old Cars are not a spectators sport, especially when you own one:D..............Fred ps I know sometimes when it's real hot, I get a lilttle nervous:eek: about driving the old car Quote
55 Fargo Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 Fred' date='Actually, my van almost qualifies at this cruise in. It's for all cars 20 years old or older. Six more years and it will qualify. I don't worry about the car going in the hot weather. It always starts and goes ok. Just don't like riding in it when it's that hot. As for camping at a Holiday Inn or some other hotel, isn't that the only way to go.:cool: I've only slept in a tent twice in my life out in the woods. First time was in basic training in the Army at Ft. Knox for a week. Second time was about 2 years later while stationed at Granite City, IL. The whole base went to Ft. Leonardwood, MO for a week of field exercises. That's when I said; "Hey, this isn't my kind of Army". I then set on quest to find someone to get a stateside swap of duty stations back to Ft. Knox and a unit that didn't go to the field. Found a guy who worked in the office at Ireland Hospital at Ft. Knox that was from the St. Louis area. So.........we traded duty stations. . After that, never had to spend a day in the field at any other duty station either for the other 4 years I spent in the Army. I let other people go camping in the rough, then they can tell me about it.[/quote'] Norm, the Army Infantry does field training in Canada in winter at times, sleeping in tents, I beilieve its -30 for the cut-off, then no tents, buit until -30 they will be sleeping in tents, outside, thats when a warm bed seems the most important thing in life.........
