NW SSRs at the Drive-In - Picture Thread

[Tug Boat]

A great time was had by all and this is a new thread to share our pictures and memories, (created at the request of our Grand Wagonmaster).



Now to see if I can move my pictures from the other thread

[Tug Boat]

We only stayed for the first movie, so I get the honour of putting up the first pictures.

1. Our fearless wagon master after hearing some of us didn't have our fog lights on during the cruise.

2. Some beautiful cars waiting for the owners who were touring a private car musuem.

3. Some more beautiful cars.

4. Our fearless wagon master again sitting in the seat of the Dragn.

5. Lining up and waiting for the drive-in to open.

[Tug Boat]

1. Beautiful cars parked at the home of our wonderful hosts, Dragn. Their owners were away enjoying Mr and Mrs Dragn's good food and hospitality.

2. Yet more beautiful cars.

3. Yes, I know it is a Dodge, but the owner also owned the private car museum which he graciously allowed us to tour.

4. Inside the private car museum.

5. Another inside shot.

Thanks for a view of what the rest of us missed. Hope you all had a great time.

Dear Peter & Cindy,

Haven't had time to post my comments and photos as I had to morph into my "other life in the City" & Girdle Up for this morning's meeting with my high-end Philanthropic Group......... I couldn't find a thing to wear, nor any of my notes......... but, at least I made the meeting bright-eyed and bushy-tailed after a wonderful wonderful weekend with you and our fantastic Northwest SSR family !!

Thanks for your incredible hospitality ....... thanks for attending to everyone's wants and/or needs, thanks for the opportunity to not only see your beautiful countryside on our grand Saturday Cruise, but to take us to places in your area where we could let our SSR's RUN WILD - something we all want to do and rarely have the opportunity to do so !! The Drive-In Movie was such a hoot - not the movie - just being together, wearing our special "SSR Truck Protectors" especially embroidered by Roberta (Firechaser), and watching Peter's DRAGN irritate everyone around as he tried to find a way to turn the radio on and his lights, smoke and gyrations OFF !!!

On to the impromptu breakfast in your courtyard on a bright and gorgeous Sunday morning ......... What a grand event - what an incredible setting - all at your hand and with your rare & generous hospitality !!

Thank you for all you both contribute to us......... Part of the passion for our Northwest SSR group is the truck, but most is the Passion we have for one another !!

We love you,

Sue

The Drive-in was a blast. Especially with Peter flashing the crowd - with his fancy lights that is.

Friday night Meet n' Greet at Peter's & Cindy's began with a Golfing - Closest to the Pin Contest & Cocktail Party; Daylight Display of the DRAGN & Cocktail Party; BBQ Steak Dinner & Cocktail Party; Dessert & Cocktail Party; and Presentation of the DRAGN at night - flashing lights, smoke screen, doors up, doors down, tailgate up, Plasma TV on - all in preparation for annoying everyone around him at the Drive-In the next night !!!

Meanwhile, the presentation of the Embroidered One-Of-A-Kind Personalized SSR "Truck Protectors (with toothpicks)" to each & every SSR - hilighted by Awards for the longest distance: Tugboat, Steve & Gayle (Nanaimo); Flassh, Ray & Iris (Summerland), Rafferd, Ray & Linda (Port Orchard).

What a beautiful place for a private showing of not only incredible vehicles, but the nostalgia of what used to be - thanks Dave & Rosemary for allowing us to visit your precious collection !

Of course I forgot my other camera battery, so NW SSR's, please add on from here !!

[turnheadz]

great photo's everyone, thanks
How are we ever going to compare to last weekend on our next gathering eh? That was indeed a benchmark meet

[FireChaser]

Okay Sandy now you see what I was busy working on for the Drive In movie night.

Glad everyone enjoyed their SSR bibs. Sue said she sold out on the SSR can wraps and that she thought you wanted some more. I have a few blanks left and plan to order some more if people are interested.

If the fanatics want more of the mug wraps please advise along with car color.

Looks like everyone had a great time and sorry we were not able to attend.

For those of you who knows what happened to my Silver Dragn 2 at the Drive-In (Glen I think you are probably right) - look at thread #10 picture of the Dragn 2. Looks like someone else did the same thing before I did. Oosps!!! Will have it back to looking good before our next run.
Cindy

[tickledpink]

I knew there was a bent post somewhere in front of me, and sure thing, when I backed up there it was.......... I love you a lot Cindy, but didn't want to become a twin in that manner !!

We are thankful it wasn't worse !

[DRAGN]

I went forward, not backwards - oops didn't feel a thing. I guess if you can't feel a bridge, you won't feel a post.

From the look of the post I think it was just waiting for you to pull out and then it jumped at the dragon. At least that is the story I would be telling.

Great pictures and looks like a great time had by all!

I feel your pain. When I left after the first movie I prayed I wouldn't hit the post. Couldn't see it when I left and to make it worse.... I just woke up . Luckily my co-pilot had her eye on it. Don't know why they don't use plastic traffic delineators instead of steel posts.

Thanks to you and Peter for an absolutely great weekend. Enjoyed everything and especially chasing the Dragn when Peter opened it up, (though my co-pilot wasn't impressed). Also happy Peter let me keep up with him.

Wish we could have stopped in for breakfast on Sunday to say good bye and thank you in person, but we had family in North Van to visit and a ferry to catch. Hope the Dragn didn't suffer too much damage.

Brian & Georgia joined our Saturday fun and sent wonderful photos for me to post for your enjoyment!!

Our Car Collection hosts, Dave & Rosemary, enjoyed watching us all try to back into the parking spots !!

[tickledpink]

full of wonderful sights............

[tickledpink]

and then a FAST ROAD CRUISE over the river and through the woods - winding all over the countryside !!

[tickledpink]

We were so lucky to have Dave & Rosemary open their great show room for us.........
