Pavilions for Russo and Steele night 12_20_14

[Xplantdad]

Holly and I went to Pavilions today for the rescheduled Russo and Steele event (which was postponed due to rain last weekend). Drew and Josephine weren't able to make it, but Darin, Russo and Steele's marketing manager did a great job in their place. Russo and Steele raffled off free passes to their show, hats, shirts and all sorts of cool stuff. They also gave out cash prizes to the selected winners of a few different categories.

Holly and I met up with Fred Ragla, John Hill and Rick showed up after his Barrett-Jackson drivers meeting, we saw Stan and Terry, Kevin DeWitte, Bob Anderson, Dave Oscher and the rest of the Desert Derelicts..who threw their annual Christmas party at Pavilions.

Enjoy the pics!

This is the Hemi car that I saw waaay back when...before it was restored-it was silver then....with blue showing through in places. This was featured in Hemmings Muscle machines. It's beautiful!

<span style="color: #3333FF"><span style="font-weight: bold">Good job Bruce!! The black Super Stock Plymouth with the red wheels really grabbed me!! And Holly looks great considering what she's been through!! You go girl!!! By the way, you mentioned having a new camera, I think you said a Nikon of some kind. Do you shoot it in auto mode or what?? Your shots are great! Thanks again Bruce. </span></span>
