I've missed three weeks of cruising. Two weeks I was in Arizona, and last week I attended a funeral of a family friend.

Now I see why some Arizona folks don't cruise during this time of the year. 91 degrees and 60% humidity at cruise time here in Abingdon, Maryland. I was sweating just taking pictures!

Anyway, it did cool down as the evening progressed and ended up with about 300 cars! Hope you enjoy.

I had about 4 or 5 more after this one, but the pics were bleached out, so I deleted them.

Now I have to decide what cruise to go to tonight.

Yeah I know Doc says I am hopeless. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif he told me I would be better if I had a big car that could instead of a little car that thought it could. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif

Good eye, Dan....I completely missed it the first time! Usually don't see them in engine compartments http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Thanks for the pics, Rick. That low mile 72 Chevelle for <$10K looks like a good buy!

Rumor has it that '72 was purchased from someone in California and brought here to flip. A year ago, it was $14K. It's a nice solid piece and the price is becoming reasonable for what you are getting.

Saturday Night Cruise Pics!

These pics are from a local cruise spot in Middlesex, Baltimore County MD. The oppressive heat may have kept people away. Camera is still giving me a fit, but I finally fixed it tonight.

We stayed at this cruise for about an hour, then drove over to the Walmart Cruise in Fullerton, MD. It was too dark to take pics there.

I apologize for these last bleached out photos, but my camera issue has been addressed. I'll do better next time. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
