Hello Fellow listers :
This weekend we had our MVPA chapter meeting at our house.
We had a really nice perfect day .
We talked and displayed our vehicles. We enjoyed the sunshine and freedom
and free discussions on this or that feature of our vehicles, and so on .
After last weeks sad sad destruction, this meeting was a welcone enjoyable
8 hours.
Our MONTHLY MEETING had 10 Military vehicles which included 3 CJ2A jeeps.
Next to us is a County Park. We planned our meeting BBQ to coincide with the
annual Antique Car Show and Flea Market, (next door) which draws thousands
of people each year !
The public, parks the vehicles on our left side of our property and walks
past our nice
Mil-Vehcle display and on into the Car show next to us on the right side of
our property.
We had hundreds stop by and enjoy our vehicles.& were able to sign on new
members too !
My wife and I put on a corn roast BBQ and all the trimmings for our group
which included wives too.
I also tested the New burner in the old BBQ
( This was fabricated from an old large sturdy cast iron burner from a
furnace. I just got tired of buying the crap that they pass of as stainless
steel - rust free - replacement burners ...you know, the one that rust all
too quickly.!!!!)
Finally, the our allday event was accompanied by a nice smoldering log fire,
which not only roasted the corn, but was enjoyed right on into the evening,
well after the sun went down
Aint this hobby grand !
