Hi Milton,

Yeah, I was thinking this morning that you won an award also, but I couldn't remember which one -I was afraid my memory wasn't quite accurate.  Congratulations!  I've edited my post on awards to include you and your car.

As Pete Phillips noted, the 65GS group was very well represented at the meet.  Nice to hear him comment on how active our group is and encouraging others to check out our website!

Great to be with the group, and a great week to all!

It was great to meet everyone and to put a face with a name. A nice selection of cars, good weather, what more could you ask for.

We had a great time! was good to see friends, and meet new friends. Thanks to Tony and family of a great meal, and private car show. Thanks to Will Ascher for the photos, and running for those of us who can't run anymore.

Was a great meet. Like everyone else has mentioned a BIG thank you to Tony for the barbecue and car show. Seeing friends again was very good plus getting to meet the wives was nice also.

Very nice to see everyone, learned a few things, saw old friends and met some new 65GS nuts [enthusiasts]. Thanks again to Tony and Sydney for the great picnic! Unforgettable!

There was another really cool thing I seen this week , weekend , and it was,t even a car .  It prompted me to bring a couple of mine next year and that was Will Ascher Marks son .   Thanks Mark for bringing one of your kids and thank you Will for coming along .
We need to remember , if we don,t get some of the younger generation interested in the preservation of old cars ( be it stock , street rods  customs  what ever ) a lot of these automotive functions will cease to exist in the future .
It,s a great family event .
