THANK YOU to the Upstate NYers who turned out for the nice drive to Hemmings, a very quaint gorgeous 'garage-type' museum~! We all met on time at our meeting spot...very well-done~!
THANK YOU ALL...juli

 

[WOT!]

I just got home myself. Thanks for coming NY/CT. It was great to see some old friends, and meet some new ones. You all rock!

BTW, I made good time, 4 hours!

We'll have to do a nice cruise through VT someday. It seemed like VT had the best roads.

 

[bluequadcab]

Would have liked to join you, but hard to be on 2 Viper cruises at the same time. Juli, I've gone with the NE club at least a few times and they are a great bunch of people. Last year I went on a run with them that ended up at Ben and Jerry's in VT. It was a blast. My parents live in VT and there's many scenic roads, some are noted as the most scenic in America. That gas station meeting spot looks familiar! Does Tim still have his other Viper that he had at VOI? I think it's a Carrol Shelby edition. Nice pictures everyone. I hope they go again next year.

 

[mike & juli]

Jimmy, yes Tim says he'll NEVER sell his awesome Carroll Shelby GTS...(we also LOVE that car!)
Was an awesome day...yep, that's the Hemmings/Sunoco station there you see....lots of 'moose' in the town as well (statues!)...juli
