Pavillions 03 03 2012

[Xplantdad]

Rick and I went out to Pavillions today! We met up with Paul Martin (Canuck) and his family...as there are in town for a bit. It's always good to see Paul, and it was a pleasure to meethis family as well.

We also met up with Fred...and his wonderful 1970 L78 Chevelle. What a beauty! I will have a few pics of this all original car in a bit.

All the regulars were there, including Dave O. Rich, Bob A., Sizzler Wayne, Kevin DeWitte , Fred K. and Shaun Price. John Hill was there as well with his wonderful 1970 LS6 Chevelle (which I managed to NOT get a front shot of <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif (I am an idiot)

Finally we met up with Don (DONAZ) on this site and his wife...Cool folks!

Anyways, here we go with the pics!

First off...no one was hurt...and neither car was a collector car...but BAM!!!!

It was great to spend the afternoon at the Pavillions and hook up with some great people,especially Bruce. I explained to my family that a Phoenix visit was not complete without seeing the people and cars.

Now we will return to our regularly scheduled vacation.
