Didn't have that many for today to choose from. I thought my video camera quit on me until I found out the tape ran out early - had a 30 min tape instead of 60min.
Anyway, I did snap a few pics of us enroute from the lunch stop into Evansville. Hard to see anything specific, but you'll see that the line of cars goes on and on.
Final pic is part of the parking area at Roberts Stadium.

Will be there at noon looking for you guys.
SSnova.....The Memphis leg is the longest of the Tour. We're leaving at 7:30 (FUZZY time) this morning and don't expect to be there before 3:30, if all else goes well. If you can go in the the Long Haulers area you might check on getting 14 spots where we can be displayed togetherclose to the vendors displays. We have been placed together, but in outer areas.

Second link is to Hot Rod Tour Forum. There may be other photos there.
When you click on WATCH, go to the album of pix and look through for any shots including us. There are a few, but you won't have to wade through pix your not concerned with. my .02.

Some great vehicles in this Tour....can't blame anyone for watching the whole thing.
They should have been able to handle this in fine style.......As they host one of the largest independent Pre 49 Street Rod Runs in the country......usually about 5000 or more........and they do this for a week in late August.....The Rod Run is actually 3 days........My sons visited you all yesterday.....as they live 15 mins. away... I lived in that area for 45 years......Have a good day today on the way to Memphis......Wolfie

Got in about 40 minutes ago... started unpacking. The cats won't leave me alone.
Anyway, it was fun, but it's also good to be back. The trip home was the worst part - 2 days of 500+ mile stretches. Doug and I reached Knoxville around 11:30 last night - the time zone switched back to eastern by then. Up and on the road again around 8:30 this morning.
Now it's time to finally go through all of the stuff, download the pictures, and look at the video.
Well, looks as if alot of you passed right by me. Friday while out I got to see about a hundred or so different cars going to the meet. Looked as if a LARGE time and alot of neat rides but I saw no SSR's at that time. I was told there were some behind the rest. SORRY I missed seeing you all.

My SSR: '05 Concept Truck, powered by Heavy Duty rubberbands, and a really BIG WINDUP KEY!
Got home last night, from the HRPT/Springfield. Was really happy to see my house was still there. Some unpacking and visiting with my dog were priorites, right up until my wife opend the back door and said, "Hello stranger"!
I got back to the unpacking and dog sometime later.
Lots to go through. lots of mail, packages, and I have to hack through the back yard to get to the bee-hives. Next week is going to be real darn busy.
Did I menton it was good to sleep in my own bed last night?

I was in the bathroom doing my hair this morning and the daughter comes in and says " Mom theres a yellow truck here with red letters DHL on it." I thought, "Now what did Mark order?"
I head out to the kitchen. She says it's a chair. I was like, A chair?
It was from the Kississimee both. I don't remember signing up for anything but guess I must have.
It's really nice. Bue with a camopy on it the only bad thing about it is that it says Bud Light on it I drink Miller Lite. But it was free!
Great Pictures!!!
The attitude is free.
we are blessed
