    Couldn't make it. I was planning on picking my my runt and heading over. Unfortunately he decided to crap his pants just before I picked him up. Granted it was an outdoor meet and all, but still...

    FoShoTho...Sonic haz no dollar menu! I have had a few of their drinks as Lexie was always wanting to stop there to try different ones whenever she could. Some were pretty ok, others were meh. A Wendys frosty from next door is a for sure win tho.

    I link to Flickr on Facebook, no likes or comments... I post pics and the link on Garage Geeks, nothing... I check here because I'm bored, and now I know where I'm loved.:p

    First and foremost, if there's not a pic of your car here, it's because my dumb ass left my tripod on the bench by my front door and the shots didn't turn out, because darkness and I'm spastic and twitchy. Okay, less of the latter, but hand-holding 1/3 second shutters is tough for anyone, I'm still not sure how I got some of the 1/4 second shots. So sorry Josh, sorry Brett, all the sharpening I could possibly throw at the shots of your cars couldn't save them. Next time I'll have my tripod and get some good ones. Promise.

    Anyway, in my usual fashion, highlights here, full link at the bottom, you kids know the drill by now:

    Tonight's pics! If I showed you something on my camera that isn't here, it's because I fail at manual focus. It's a good thing there's an entire summer if need be for repeat shots. Also, Flickr added a handy 800px option, so I can post slightly larger pics without worrying about stretching things, yay!

    Shiny night shots!

    If I cared so much about what people did with my photos (within reason) they'd be watermarked and locked down to 640px. ;)

    Please note the new parking arrangement for the Wednesday night meets. We can only park in the red boxes shown on this image. That back parking lot by the liquor store is a 'private' lot and we have been asked to no longer park there. Sad story but true!

    Wendys has let us know they like our business and we can use their lot as well. So lets make sure to buy more from them! The red box to the right is Savers parking lot and it works well for over flow.
