I went last year and had a great time. Was going to go this year, but didn't want to chance the weather.

All those great cars and an awesome Ford display can be a bit overwellming.

So sad about the tents being blown down. I know some folks are really upset over the loss of a show car. I wonder whose insurance will cover it?

Good Morning every one.
I thought the tents that went down were at another event. I thought Barrett-Jackson was OK. Did I get the wrong info?

I would suggest not an Expy because I am only getting 13 in town. My 97 PSD gets 20 so thats my main mode of transportation. I vote diesel.

Good morning everyone. Snowed last night have about 2" with freezing fog this morning. Hey Bill glad to hear you have work. I know from being in business myself that always feels good.
Vici & I are leaving Northern Nevada this summer. We are headed back South. We aren't sure where we will land, but plan to base out of Pahrump for awhile until we know were Vici's going to work. Las Vegas looks real good. Vici's phone interview went very well. But I would like to be back in Arizona. The only thing is wages. Nevada pays better, but it will depend on just what the difference is. We have completed what we came to do here. Things just haven't gone in our direction to stay here. A lot of disappointments & doors just not opening. So we need to change directions. Plus the winters up here are not for me. I have hardly seen any sun for two months. It has been snow, fog, & rain. It is so depressing. This year is worse than last year. I read that another series of storms are headed our direction. So it could be another week with very limited sun. The temps are suppose to stay in the 30s for a high.
Anyway enough depressing talk. I'll keep you guys posted.
Craig
