What a fantastic day, the weather was perfect and a bunch of Little Guys made the cruise.  Most participated in a club scavenger hunt along the route and prizes were awarded to Rex & Jeanette Prescott, Harry & Rita Tabke, Bob & Vicki Dietrich (with a little help from Diane Phillips) and Tim & Jackie Held for there efforts.  Red & Debbie Johnston turned in a creative, but not very accurate sheet that brought lots of smiles.  Tim also won $100 in the drawing (I left out his last name in case the IRS is reading this).  A bunch of us stopped at Marie Callendar's on the way home for dinner.  Also present were Rick Bennett, Jerry Harder, Norm Stansell and his adorable granddaughter Sam, Frank & Suzie Lewark, Jim Gerrard, Howard Haston, Curt Coulter and Terry & Bonnie Newman.  Rene & Hilda Gomez lost an air bag on their Ford and had to stay home and work on the truck, but they were there in spirit.  We saw a lot of old friends and met some new ones.  This was a great event and I have already registered for next year.
