I say we stick with our original plan. If we meet up at the park and the weather is crappy, we could always go to a nearby restaurant. If people want to meet up on Sunday as well for picture opportunities, we could try to arrange something last minute without canceling our Saturday meet.

We've had this in the works for well over a month now and I don't think it's fair to cancel it when some people may not get back online before tomorrow to check the forum.

 

+1. But if its really crappy will we have snow burgers?

 

If it's really crappy tomorrow, we'll hit up the local pub and make them cook for us.

 

Lol. I will just hold off grabbing the meat and will show up around noon-1. I will also find a grocery store within the area if turns out manageable weather. Don't want food to go to waste or anything.

 

Oh my, there are so many awesome replies I could make to that statement. But I better keep them to myself. =P

But your plan sounds good.

 

Well, I set myself up for it, lol.

 

That was a pretty brutal self setup there Mark!

Alright I'll let the other troops now that we're still on for tomorrow. All the weather BS is forecast to clear out by morning with an upgraded high of 52. We do have the shelter until 10:00pm, so if people decide to arrive a little later.

I've got several coolers (with ice) I can bring so we can store the food and stuff in until we cook it. Good idea?

 

Yeah, but it wasn't on purpose though. Good idea for the cooler.

 

Cool I'm in, My name is Alex, T-gray 8 and I'll bring some dinks . The pics would look awesome with all our 8's in the parking lot at the lake.

 

Hey Alex, welcome. I bet your ti-gray is a beaut.... not that I'm biased or anything. :P And I agree, I bet the pics will be great. I am bringing an SLR camera, so hopefully the weather cooperates.

Aaron, thanks for the update on the weather. Coolers would be great - I only have one small one.

I can't be at the park until 2 pm, but I know some people wanted to get there as early as noon. Please chime in with what time you think you'll be there so everyone can see if it's worth getting there early.

doubt i will be there. weather and roads will be too bad to get there early. have to be at work at 330 up north. maybe next time. post if anyone wants to do anything sunday.

 

If the weather actually has residual snow on the ground, I'm likely to be late, or perhaps not at all.

It is my hope that by noon-ish or shortly thereafter, the roads will be clear of snow. If that is the case, I'll be there.

I have OEM tires, and a steep driveway.

 

give me a +1 for good weather!!!!!!!

 

Thanks guys, I got a great time at the lake. my email is vigozus@hotmail.com or http://www.myspace.com/vigozus, keep in touch... Alex

 

Yeah it worked out in our favor again for sure. It was great to meet everyone. I'll get the pics uploaded tomorrow.

 

Smog- You're the man.

Great to see everyone again!!

 

looks like I just missed you guys, maybe next meet.

 

It wasn't all me, you guys made it pretty easy since you'll all so damned agreeable! Really good to finally put some faces to names and see some good lookin' cars.

I think for the next meet we need to accommodate the folks that were driving 30 minutes to an hour to get to this one and organize something more out by them. Which could be fun for all of us in town to meet up and caravan out wherever (for some highway fun of course)

Again, great to meet all of you, lots of fun and too much food.

Oh Kyle (blue Mazda6) posted pics, you guys probably didn't get the link

tdogg4ya what color is your 8? just wondering if I have seen you around?

 

I have a 2006 Copper Red Shinka with temp tags still, you may see me around the Strangline area.

 

I don't think I've ever seen a copper red... you got pics?

 

I'll keep a eye out for ya,

 

Wish I could have made it. Didn't know until I saw Tirminyl on my way home from work Sat. I haven't driven my 8 further than about 2 miles since January.

 

Wow, you must really baby that car. Mine is my daily driver, but I was able to ride the bike into work today - woo hoo! Can't beat 60 mpg when your commute is 64 miles roundtrip. :P

Btw, guys, sorry for the delay in getting the pics online. I started to post them last night and Jon said I should blur out the plates... so I'll work on that tonight.

 

Here is a few pics, I need to clean her up and take alot more. I want to get some tint and maybe mazdaspeed body kit. You guys got any suggestions?
