I finally have a chance to get on line and thank all those who showed up. The weather was very threatening and rained for a short time but regardless the diehards were there. Ann and I sincerely appreciated everyones participation especially to all the out of towners that drove the distance as this was kind of a grand opening for us in the new location. Bob and Nancy, Don and Judi as well as others stopped by almost weekly and can likely appreciate what went into getting the new shop off the ground. Special thanks to Dennis for ALL the items he has provided including all the signage. Without his help we would have been way behind. Thanks to Bob for BEING here and wearing that way cool shirt. You looked GREAT in it!
As usual I only had time to take a few photos.
Here is the only one I took of our memorabilia room dedicated to Dennis Hartweg which included Fred Gibb, Dick Harrell, Ann and Dennis's wall and itmes from the Fred Gibb Memorial shows from year one. The library has not yet been completed and was 'hidden' away. Thanks to Jeff Murphy for his temporary usage of the timing trees. Ann and I spent MANY weeks on this room. I could never have had the entire shop and all the legistics that went with it to this stage had it not been for the help that Ann has given me the last 9 months while I was trying to make ends meet.
Lastly, thanks to Nancy for bringing Helen and that WAY COOL new Camaro. I had the highway open for you to do one of your burnouts as I had sent the Police Chief on vacation but you passed on the chance..........
