February 16th
Another cold night for a Friday Night Cruise. However by 5 o’clock we
had a full line of cruisers waiting to get on the brick street of
Old-Town. There seemed to be more spectator activity than usual, we
guess the tourist don’t mind the cold weather. After our evening meal we
went out to check the new arrivals. We found a newcomer to our cruise.
Carlos Santos, who resides in Davenport just moved down from New York.
He has been wanting to try a cruise and he picked ours. He brought out
his Green 1995 Trans AM Pontiac. This is a one owner car and he has
personalized it with his wife’s help. He is a great fan of the
incredible Hulk, that is why the car is green.
His wife is an artist and she hand painted the dash with a brick wall
and a picture of the incredible Hulk. She did a very good job. It is
good to see other people’s ideas of designing. That is what makes it
interesting to check out all the cruisers.
It was good to see Tom Coupe back with his green Ranger, it was out of
commission for a month. Ken Kaelble who resides in Clermont was out with
his 05 Dodge Ram. He has not been out for awhile. Sue and Buzz were also
out with their truck and Joe Ness with his Ranger. We have quite a few
regular trucks. We heard Dave Garceau came thru with his shoulder
operation very well. We have no other news but we will keep you all
informed when we learn more.
Bert and Laverne are the cruisers of the month. We want to thank them
for delivering the cruise papers to us. Bob is on vacation in the Keys.
We miss Bobby and Gerald on block four. We hope it is only the cold
weather keeping them away.
Joe had 6 numbers pulled for the Cruise-O-Matic, Barb Karlson was the
lucky winner of $25.00, she also won a flag. We understand this was her
first cruise. She is off to a very good start. Only 3 claimed their
flags tonight.
The 50/50 which was $37.00 went to number 03424 and was won by a tourist
from Illinois. We had 104 brave cruisers that came out on a cold
February evening. Thanks to them and our staff for another safe and
enjoyable Friday Night Cruise.
See you all next week.
