It was a typical August night in Central Florida. <<<HOT<<< No rain and
it was a beautiful night for our 155 cruisers who came out in the
sweltering heat to show their beautiful vehicles. We had a mixture of
old and newer vehicles and it is leaning more to the new ones. If you
have a vehicle between 1973 to 1987 or know someone who has one, come on
out any Friday night and show us what you have. We think you will be
glad you did and we will be glad to have you.
One of our unusual cruisers was a 2005 SSR Chevy. This one sports a very
bright red and yellow coat of paint. It also has after market wheels and
tires. Graphics and a few other modifications. It is also powered by a
400LS6 Corvette motor. Teedo the proud owner resides in Auburndale. He
bought this vehicle new.
We noticed another very nice 1974 Gray Hilux Toyota Pickup. This one
belongs to Arnaldo Rivera and we did not get to talk to him. Ken did not
get to cruise tonight, he was called home because of a sick pet. Dave
moved into his place on block four and followed Stan who is cruiser of
the month for August. Stan had some problems with his pacer this week.
After a radiator repair, light switch and belts, it was running like new
again. We have to keep on working on these cruisers from time to time
but they are worth the effort.
We want to welcome Don and Jackie back from their month trip to Penna.
They went to visit with family and friends. Also Bev will be back in
another week. We know Dave misses her. You don't have to be a cruiser to
enjoy Old Town on a Friday Night. We meet a lot of our Old Town and
camping acquaintances. So any given Friday Night come on out and enjoy
Old Town.
Jon and Angie Strode who were cruisers of the month for July received
their jackets tonight. Angie had to buy hers but we think it is nice for
each of them to have one. We both have one and we are glad we did.
Our cruise-O-Matic was $300.00 but no takers tonight. The 50/50 was only
$25.00 and it went to Kim Inman from Kissimmee. Our ticket drawer was a
little girl from England, Allan loves the way they talk and rewarded her
with a cute little fire house stuffed dog. Nice gesture, Allan.
See you all next week.
_______ Bill & Doris.
