Did FordGuy545 make it there yet? I know he was a little concerned about getting there ok,being that he just put a new top end on his motor.

Thanks to an 11th hour save by one of my soon to be former places of employment, i'll be there with bells on, or what ever the kids are saying these days. See everyone at the hotels in the morning for pictures, I've got my new toy packed and ready to go!

My dad and I got to Mill Creek around 130 yesterday. The weather was beautiful and all of the birds and cougars really made it a decent day.

We couldn't stay long at either the park or show due to my dad's health. He was released from the ER Thursday night due to being 2.5qts low on blood. He wasn't able to receive a transfusion until Monday. Just being out of bed and the drive wore him out. But he said it was really nice to see everyone again. ....AND my windows decided to BOTH come out of the clips yesterday on my way to Ohio. MUST BE OHIO'S BAD ROADS! ahhhhhh

Hopefully next year his health will be back and my mom can ride with him in his blue max and I can bring along my fiance to meet all the rest of the cougarnuts.

Gary in the black cougar mn12 sure brought a nice ride. Very nicely done.
Alex's header panel mod was stunning.  Glad to see Karen and her 30th there along with her family (i missed the past year and dang your kids grew like sprouts!)
And then there is GRUMPY, he always seems to make CJ more enjoyable. Haha I could write a book on all the experiences of just yesterday but I best be getting those clips fixed in the windows before work.

CJ08 was rockin'...thanks everyone for coming out. I was initially skeptical that so many people would venture out due to the high gas prices and inflated hotel room prices. I was expecting the worst...never thought we'd have the highest attendance ever.

The final tallies:
40+ cars (still sorting through photos to confirm)
~100 people
Over $1,000 for charity

And almost no rain. ;)

Again, thanks from the bottom of my heart to all those who could make it.

I was simply amazed at the generosity of everyone (once again)! It just goes to show what a great group of people we have here.

The kitties, the kiddies, soup kitchen and the Valley Cruisers will once again benefit from it.
