A curiosity::
Is the Pumpkin Run in Houghton Lake on Sept 25-27 on anyones schedule this year??

HotRodGirl · 08-31-2009, 09:00 AM

No it is not scheduled for this year...I'll be in CAL the week before and don't return to MI until the 23rd. I do know that one member registered to go (Phil & Debbie) screen-name: Luke... but being that no one else is going I think he's planning on just sucking up the registration fee.

Feel free to get a group to go...this is a great run

PRPLHZE · 08-31-2009, 07:25 PM

w/ HRG. This is a great run, in fact, I wouldn't mind making it myself if i can get the sat off work.

HRG, I just participated in a car/bike show at my town Holt's Hometown Festival. I had so much fun, but the 'R didn't win!!!!

I was beat by a wooden truck!!! It was a 84 s10 that this guy made in 5 1/2 weeks. It didnt have doors, the whole top of it tilted forward!!!!

I met several people who were interested in the 'R, asking questions like I did, and one man told me he's looking to buy. I gave him your card so he could get to the site b/c I still don't have any business cards.

Although, I may not have a trophy, I may have gotten us another fanatic!!
By the way I didn't have my camera with me, but the community news took pics. I'll be sure to post so you can see "the wooden" truck, and there may be some of PRPLHZE in the paper!!!!

Does The Pumpkin Run include lots of Pumpkin Pie, Northman?

by the way, I bet the scenery up there that time of year is spectacular.

I think the scenery is pretty, but it's even better a little farther into fall, and a little more up north.

You should come to the upcoming Fall Color Tour Doophus! Then I can put a face to the name

Hey......good for you!!! Yes please report back with pics and nice job on picking up another possible fanatic

I've taken a back seat with planing runs this year and I'm hoping that you will all continue to get together and go or plan your own

I'll hook up with you all soon and will be looking forward to going on one you all plan.

This is a great run....but I wish it was mid October as that's the best time for colors in that area
