PICS!

Dinner was really great, but the best part was the company!

I will TRY and identify everyone, but post up if I miss you or get it wrong.

Adam and Rich C.

Steve (black shirt), Ray from Grabiaks on his right, and Rad in the ball cap.

Chris05GTO and the Mrs (Debbie)

Rich (MarylandVette) and his Mrs. I can't remember who the other guy is. Sorry!

I need help here. I know the lovely lady's name is Betsy, and her husband Rich C on her left.

Me, with the moustache, Rad, and Ray from Grabiaks

The clinic was great. We started out in the front, but had to move to the back of the dealership. Too much highway noise. A good decision.
All together there were 80 - 90 people there! A great turnout! Perfect weather!

And like the Pied Piper, Adam led everyone around back for the demonstration.

After Adam's demo, little detail clinics broke out:

Grabiak's generously provided everyone with donuts, hot dogs, chips, roast beef sandwiches and drinks. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

And when it was almost over, there wasn't a whole lot left on the shelves to pick from!

Rich the two guys that you couldn't identify at dinner was me Tom McDuffee (McDuff) in the red shirt and Al (ALF01) in the black shirt by Betsy. I had a great time at dinner and the clinic. It was really cool meeting Adam and talking with him. The weather was fantastic for April in the Midwest. Thank You to everyone that put on the clinic and the free food. The facility sure fooled me just looking at it from the street. There were some great cars there too.

Rich · 04-25-2009, 03:14 PM

I thought that's who you both were, but wasn't sure and didn't want to get you guys mixed up. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Now I'll know next time. It was great meeting everyone I did. Sorry I didn't get to meet some of you guys.

Chris05GTO · 04-25-2009, 04:22 PM

Hey Rich, It was nice meeting you and your wife, great pictures ! I had a great time !

Rich · 04-25-2009, 05:22 PM

Same here Chris.

Kinldy allow me to add my thanks to Adam for his generosity - both at dinner and with his time; as well as to my "roomie" Steve, who was also a great source of information.

Also many thanks to Ray and all at Grabiak Chevrolet....great job of hosting!

I had an incredible time, it was great to meet everyone....and - as I stated before dinner - great to hang out with "kindred spirits" who understand my fear of parking my car next to a minivan!!

A special thanks to the officers at the "Sobriety Checkpoint" who, after verifying I was sober and realizing I had become separated from the "caravan" to the hotel; told me to "drive very slowly past the other officers, then do what you need to do to catch up to your group"!!!

Looking forward to continuing conversations with many of you!!

Hope everyone made it home safe.

Best,

Al ("ALF01")

ADAMS ROCKS!!!!

Chris05GTO · 04-25-2009, 06:24 PM
