Just back from the Triumph run. Great day and shakedown run for the Jag. Sort of out of place with all the old TRs but everyone liked it. One other Jag there but it was a 4.2 E Type Coupe. It sure was an unfair advantage. Odometer that registers perfect, no shifting gears and when the one dark cloud loomed, I mentioned we didn't need to erect the top...just push three buttons. But alas it never rained. BTW, we are still learning what all these buttons do. It's more fun than reading the owners manual.

Stoped at the beer dist and were greeted by a bunch of whopping it up high school kids. Be careful out there guys. Seems to be a rite of graduation time to see if you can kill yourself. We are secured in the bunker for the evening. I'll swing out again in the morning to see what's going on before the show.

Thanks for the photos Jim! I had a great time today - glad to meet all of you. Big thanks to Jim and Jason for helping out with stuff on this end - I think everyone had a great time. The weather turned out to be really good the rest of the day, just a little touching up when we got to the show and everyone was looking great. I burned the heck out of the back of my neck - so I am the quintessential "red neck" right now.

Safe travels back home Rick, Norri, Chris, and David - Jeff I missed you when you left but thanks for coming and I hope you had a good time, great meeting you. Jason I'm sure we will cross paths sooner or later.

The event was really well attended with both Jaguar and Corvette owners representing very well - some really cool cars and interesting folks. There had to be over 100 cars or very close to it. I can't wait to see some of the pics David took with his camera. David you should change your handle to Inspector Gadget! LOL

Sorry to all those who couldn't make it this year - maybe next time. I think I owe Rick, Chris, David, and Norri a trip down south sometime - thanks for making the trip fellas!!!
