I may have to fly to the US and buy myself another Thunderbird, but I'll just hope that they get things opened up once again.

Things have to open up eventually.

I sure hope the boarder will open again an i will be able to join in on the trip Maine and Vermont.

Ted: Don't worry,we're not planning anything until this is over. It's not only hard to get across the border, it's hard to pass through some states.

Have only been going to events since 2103 but have enjoyed them all.

Question: What are the rankings for the highest number of cars/folks attending any event? (Good guesses work!)

Largest number of participants: Thunder Fever in 2005 (over 100 participants on T-Bird drive to Jonestown, TN)

And I think TBN 10 was a close second with over 90 as I recall. Just a side note --- Jeannie and I, (mostly Jeannie), planned both of them with a little help from our friends.

No need to buy, we will loan you one.

Ron, you have got to be one of the kindest and most generous of people on this earth. Thank you for the offer and it's my only hope that I would not need to take you up on such a kind gesture.

Thank you. Ted.

You are absolutely right, Ted. Our friend Ron is a true southern gentleman. He, of course, will deny this but facts are facts. Ron is always at the head of the line when someone needs a hand.

You are correct and Judy and I were one of the planners for this 5 day event. Remember the Lug Nuts!!!!

I was part of the over 100 (I believe it was 105). Good times for sure. Where else could you find a store that sold guns and vacuums? Who could forget Phil’s NASCAR bird?

We are really fortunate to have so many helpful people as members here.... I'll forget several, but besides Ron that line of helpful people includes DavidA, Paul Thomas, Dot, Mike Swartz, HKS, etc, etc... then there are many that provide interesting links, these are also very welcome additions to TBN. (Merlot4, Gene, TonyV, etc)

(I'm going to really regret this post because I left out so many and Ill kick myself over the coming days as I remember them)

Yes, Harry, it’s like a band of brothers here. I have yet to ask anyone for assistance and be refused help. Guys go out of their way all the time.

Ted said he would like to tour Vermont and Maine, recently on the Smithsonian Cable channel there have been travelogues for most of the States in the U.S. Watching Vermont and New Hampshire was intriguing to me too. I suppose I missed the one on Maine. The series is called "Aerial America" and each one features an hour on each State. Lots of time for TV when there is nowhere to go! Nowhere safe enough. Boo!

[007Cruiser]

That’s a great show and a beautiful area to tour.
