I'm a flake.. Galt car show too!
 
As it says, I'm a flake or at least I feel like one. Marsha & I are so disappointed that we haven't been able to make any of the breakfasts, but crap just keeps coming up. Hopefully we'll make it in November. We certainly have been enjoying the new ride though:

There's going to be a car show here in Galt on November 17th if anyone wants to participate. It's a local "informal" kind of show, downtown in old Galt. We had another show here a few months back in the same spot and I guess the turn out was pretty good, though we could not make it. I'll post more details as I get them.

Lastly, Marsha & I are off to the SEMA show next week. Carroll Shelby will be there all week so I'm taking something for him to sign. We'll be traveling light, but if anyone has something small they would like autographed hook up with me by the weekend and I'll "getter done."

We hope to see y'all next month,

Cool pics dude. You missed out on the breakfast. There were about 18 cars and a little cruise after. See ya next time. Have fun at SEMA.

Great pictures!
Is that Lake Commanche in the background?
Hopefully, the weather will be decent enough in November for another get together. We can see the new ride in person then.
What are you going to ask Carroll to sign? Visor? Glovebox door?

DTurnbull 10-23-2007 03:26 AM

Jim,yes, it's Commanche - what's left of it anyway.. It's a nice little drive from here. I'm just taking one of the Shelby posters for the autograph. It's time to change the decor in my office :)

Justin, I know, I know. Looks like we missed some really nice cars :(

Hoof Hearted 10-23-2007 07:10 AM

It's all good. Is Carroll still charging like $100 to sign something?

jdog 10-23-2007 09:54 AM

..............$200!:eek:

jdog;)

DTurnbull 10-23-2007 10:39 AM

$200? Crap, maybe I'll pass. Thanks Jdog, that really makes my day - J/K :)

HI Cobra 10-23-2007 12:19 PM

I think he just went up to $150 for books, posters etc. and $250 for car stuff
like glove boxes and visors. Do a quick search under Carroll Shelby and you''ll find his "donation" page.

DTurnbull 10-23-2007 01:26 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. It's for his childrens heart fund - a good cause.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for bringing up next month's get-together. You the Man'! So, where are you planning on having us meet this time? Tag, your it. We'll all look for your NorCal November Breakfast post :D

jdog 10-23-2007 01:53 PM

Don't kill the messenger!
 
Hey David, don't kill the messenger!;)

It's good to see you and Marsha with that Cobra. Looks like it was meant to be!:D

The money from the autographs goes to a good cause, sick children.

P.S. I will try to make it to the next breakfast if I can, you too, OK?;)
Looks like Jim's all over it!:rolleyes:

Very sweet lookin snake....

DTurnbull 10-24-2007 05:57 AM

Jdog, as long as it ain't raining, snowing, etc.. and Marsha doesn't have to work, we will be there. Marsha's loving this car as much as me and says she feels "like a princess" every time we're out in it. It will look a little different next time you see it too :)

Bx1 10-26-2007 12:48 PM

Weather conditions permitting... I would like to attend.

Hey! Wait a minute! What just happened? :confused:
All I said was "Hello"! :LOL:

OK, there's this place I know that does a mean breakfast platter combo. Hope you guys like jalapeno ribs and sauerkraut together. Umm! Umm! I'll keep you posted.

Bx1 10-26-2007 02:21 PM

Hey Jim,

Count me in, nice of you to make ALL the arrangements :D I will probably pass on the jalopeno though.

Hoof Hearted 10-26-2007 02:23 PM

Yes, good of Jim to volunteer. If that's the real menu, I'll bring the TicTacs!

DTurnbull 11-13-2007 01:26 PM

No Galt car show this weekend. It has been canceled for no apparent reason. Stupid town..

Bx1 11-13-2007 03:32 PM

Thanks for informing us... difficult choice between breakfast at The RIdge or the Car show... my first choice was breakfast... I am starving!

DTurnbull 11-14-2007 05:21 AM

I was disappointed by the cancellation, but not surprised. This town has been struggling with issues from A-Z since we've lived here (13 years) and just can't get it's act together. Too much politics. Too many egos. Too much mis-communication, etc.. Oh well, there's always next year.
