After reading the posts from Garry about his planned 2019 North American adventure and Rolf-Dieter about his planned U.S. Route 66 sweep to San Diego for Pagodafest, my emotions were lit up like a Christmas tree. I even started talking to my nephew about doing the same. Since my wife doesn't like old cars, or long driving trips, he's my go-to for co-piloting. He also loves cars, although his is a three-year-old 526 HP Shelby Mustang 350 GT.
After a few days and a little research, I came to my senses and realized that I don't have the stamina or courage to do what Garry and Rolf-Dieter are doing. I called my nephew back, apologized and promised to act my age in the future.
My excitement returned when the discussion turned to a possibility of a Meeting of the Clans II. If it happens, we'll be there. I've searched the site for previous posts about the 2006 event, and although there is not a lot of detail, what's there is really exciting.
Dan, if you decide to do it, I would love to participate and now I'll be patient, keep lurking and wait for further news.
I love this group.
