First Lowes Cruise Of 2010

[CC Rider]

What a gorgeous night for a cruise. Got up to 80 today, and is probably the reason why ever inch of the Lowes Cruise Lot was filled with people and cars!

However, since the place was so packed, it was very difficult to take some decent photos. Plus most of the stuff there has been photographed before. But this was the first cruise of the year, so I have to document it somehow!

Doesn't EVERY cruise have a fat a-hole park in 4 spaces, while REAL cruisers poke around looking for spots? Jerk-off! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif

Claire had a Nova that looked like this, but with a black vinyl top.

Sun went down, but NO ONE left. But everyone started leaving around 9:0.

That's all for today. I'll probably hit the Walmart Cruise Saturday night and will shoot some of the good stuff!

I totally understand! Driving I-95 during the weekend is a pain!

You should have taken a ride. I drove my 69 Charger 75 miles each way from New Jersey tonight. Well worth it as always. I'm going to try and make at least 1 per month this year.

That photo of the guy in the Black 454 SS Truck really pisses me off just looking at it. That fellow really thinks he has something special with his Black 454 Truck and golf cart in tow hogging up 4 parking spaces. This is what I call a "Professional Spectator" and they are the reason I avoid many of the bigger shows every summer these days. It's bad enough to think that somebody feels the need to bring a golf cart to a small local cruise. I'm no "Keyboard Cowboy" either and would have told him in person how I feel about his selfishness.

[jeff morocco]

Rick,
so when you leave for the Desert, you DO have someone in the wings as your replacement for the "east coast picture taker " dont you ? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
thanks for the pics http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Looks like he's stuck between the steering wheel and the seat... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

[njsteve]

Did anyone poke him with a sharp stick to see if he was actually alive? Looks like a dead cow out in the field after a few days in the sun...ready to pop! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

That poor golfcart...

Rick,

As always great pics, Thanks.

[Mr. Chevy]

WOW, you guys don't waste no time.. Official Cruising Season don't start around here until May and sometimes after Memorial Day... The weather here has been in the record highs, 80 degree range.. There is still some road salt around though, we need some more good rains to wash it all away before any of my stuff comes out!!

Great pics... Thanks...

Rich

[BlueSS454]

He was, he never got out of the truck. Jeff took care of him after he came in and sat there for a half hour.

I'll try to take up some of the slack for Rick when he leaves us http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif. I won't be able to make all of the Lowe's cruises, but will try to make one a month if I can. I can put up some NJ cruise pics too!!

[mockingbird812]

Tom - That would be much appreciated! As we folks from the great southwest of these United States will be experiencing an eclipse in cruises and shows in the coming months and are very dependent on you fine folks from the midwest, northwest, and east to keep us entertained during our hot hiatus! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
