Hey guys -

The nice part the trip still has over 2 weeks to go. We'll be bouncing around LA for 3 or 4 days then heading north to San Fran and then over to Reno for Hot August Nights.

I'll post some pics later on, but as for right now we're just going to decompress for a while.

Mike :2thumbs:

Hello Mike good to hear all is going well on the trip. So do you think you can swing by the MPM clubhouse next week for a BBQ?? If so let me know so i can get some of the locals to stop by for a meet and greet.

Thanks
Stu

Ummm, I THINK they mean pictures from this road trip!!!    ;)


I know VegasMike took a bunch of pics, but while trying to download them to his computer the computer crapped out.. He is busy going nuts trying to figure out what's what with his new computer now... I'm shocked Skip hasn't posted 40 or 50 thousand shots though.  :shruggy:

I just got home from the Vegas show had a great time.  :2thumbs: If you have never met the Skips and VegasMike you need to its worth the trip to hear the Hole story  :rofl:. Thanks again Mike for letting us hang at your place after we left a healthy donation at the Casinos. As for the Skips what can you say, its never a dull moment with Chuck around. :yesnod: Looking forward to going back but next time we have to cruise the strip in the Generals and the secret weapon. (hopefully it will be a little cooler outside)

How easy can it get? You don't even have to use a picture hosting site on here.  :shruggy:

I just looked and Chuck hasn't been on the site since yesterday at 5:30......... :scratchchin:

O.K. Guys, Mrs.Skip68 here! Our personal computer is packed up so we are using Vegasmikes new comp. The pics. that Steve P. mentioned, were just a sampling of over 145 that I took at our show! We have video too, but seem to be having probs. getting it to download to Mikes comp. Please be patient as I'm going to have to resize EACH ONE of the pics. and then post. (Unless someone can give me step by step directions to resize a whole batch, and make life easier?!) Thanks.  :cheers:

Mrs.Skip68 ;)

Here's a sample.......

Mrs.Skip68 ;)

The B5 69'Charger R/T belongs to Holly. He is standing in the middle in the top pic. This car took 1st place in B-body modified at the MATS in 2005.. SWEEEEEEET RIDE..

VegasMike is kneeling and that's Chuckles on the right.

The red 68"R/T is VegasMikes badass ride.  That car is a winner period. (Home built car).   

vegasmike

more...

Mrs.Skip68 ;)

No clue on the Buiack, but the charger interior and under hood pic. is again Holly's 69'.

obviously it's too late and i'm too tired to do more, so you nay-sayers will just HAVE TO WAIT!   :nana: :nana:   :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :D
