2005 LVC Picnic & Cruise - Chicago

August 13, 2005

Wow! What a great time. This meet turned out to be a whole weekend of successive events and it was all great. Thank you to all who came, and for those who didnt I really hope you make another meet in the future!

It all started off Friday afternoon when MsM8stress arrived at Jibit's house and we changed her front struts. Let me tell you a little about this lady folks, I gotta give her alot of credit. She really does not hesitate to jump in and get greasy. Shortly after we met for dinner with Mespock, MarkedMan and FreeFaller and then spent the night at a local bar having a great time. I have to say, this crowd is a blast to party with!

Then on Saturday we met for Breakfast, and washed our cars since it rained during the night. About 8 of us proceeded to the Picnic Grounds stopping traffic along the way. The picnic was FANTASTIC. The pics speak for themselves on this one. Classic Cadillacs, a Lincoln Mark VIII with a 5 speed manual tranny, great food, great people. Jibit was challenged to race an 11 second Cadillac Deville, still waiting to see if he'll accept the challenge. After the picnic we joined the local Lombard Cruise Night.

Naturally that wasnt enough for all of us, so we headed over to Jibit's house for Pizza and Beer and partied until the wee hours of the morning. We met the next morning for brunch before all parting ways. 3 days of friends, fun, food and cars. What could be better! Thank you all for coming and making such a great weekend! A special thanks to those who really travelled, such as Brentalan, who drove 14 hours to be wth us!

I gotta tell you folks, we have some really great members. If you havent been to a meet yet, you really should try to make one!
