Earlier today, I had the pleasure of meeting fellow TMS member Greg Mays, a.k.a. "GMAYS" in the forum. We took pix of our cars around Richmond, Virginia before heading up to a Mustang Cruise Meet north of town.

I had a great time getting to know Greg and discuss our cars and our plans for mods. It was also nice to see some of the classic iron at the cruise meet!

Here are a few pix:

 

Here are a few more...

 

And just a couple more of us at the Mustang Cruise Meet...

(I'm the pale one getting burned to a crisp in the tye dye shirt!)

 

Cool Pics!! I love the way so many TMS'rs have such a good eye for photography.

 

SWEET......very nice pix......thanks for sharing.

 

lookin sweeet both next to eachother, thanks for showin'

 

Looks like you guys had a great time out there Chris thanks for sharing the pic's hopefully you guys didn't get too burnt out there :flame2:

 

Thanks, folks! Glad you liked 'em. Greg took some too and I hope he shares them with you...

I don't know if you can tell, but we were illegally parked in both venues! Capitol Police discreetly encouraged our departure. Traffic was very light due to the early hour.

I only wish I had the good sense to apply sunscreen before heading up to the meet. I got baked! Blasted Irish skin of mine. Should be okay in a few days (I hope).

PS - Anyone got some SPF 45?

 

Chris,

Great photos, you need to get them in your Gallery.

Thanks, Dan. I need to create a gallery first!

 

Great pics Its nice to meet up with fellow enthusiasts!

 

Great pics.

 

Hey Chris did you grab that Sierra Nevada t-shirt when you came to Sacramento? I live in Chico, CA about 2 miles from the brewery. In fact I'll drink one for you tomorrow since I'm on vacation this week!

Nice looking cars BTW!

 

The pics are great!

 

Thanks! Actually, I got the t-shirt when I visited the Sierra Nevada Brewery in Chico! I was vacationing in Sacramento (nailing down some job and housing prospects) and decided to take a road trip to Chico to visit the source of one of my favorite beverages: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I'm also a fan of their Celebration Ale, which has got to be one of the smoothest, tastiest, and most satisfying brews on the planet. Shame it's only available around the Christmas holiday!

I saw a black Mustang GT parked on one of the main streets in Chico. At the time, I only had my Mustang for about a week, so it made me hate my rental even more. I missed driving my own car.

Chico is a very nice town. Very lively there, I guess because of the colleges and such. I must return, but next time I'll take my Mustang!

 

Good stuff! Great pictures!

 

Chris:

It was a pleasure meeting you in person too and I enjoyed seeing Lucky and checking out your XM/iPod setups...you're making me want to spend some more $'s!!!

Your pictures look great...it was an awesome location thanks for finding it...I don't think any of mine top what you've already posted but I'll go through them one evening this week and upload any worthy candidates...too tied up with work issues to go through the pics in detail just yet. I came out without about 80 pics from our photo shoot and the cruise meet!!!

Take it easy and get some aloe for that sunburn...I too am suffering some significant skin toasting as I had to mow the yard when I got home yesterday on top of the time we had already been baking, whew.

Later,
Greg

 

and Chris the next time you head this way be sure and email me so we can meet each other.

 

Hey Greg, I feel badly that I didn't take pix of the other Mustangs in attendance. I was too busy gabbing (imagine that!). Nothing I like more than trading war stories with gear heads! So if you've got any pix of those other ponies, please share 'em!

The burn will last a couple of days, but it's not too bad. I hope you mend quickly as well. The WORST part of getting a burn is that everyone at work is going to chide me about it. They all know that I get burned whenever I neglect to apply sunblock before going to a car show. :ranting:

Definitely! Maybe as early as mid-August.

 

Great shots you guys! I especially like the ones around the fountain. Looks and sounds like fun was had by all!
