Finally a beautiful evening with no rain. The lovebugs are still here
and we had to clean our vehicle when we arrived at Old Town. Our cruiser
of the month, Tom Coupe arrived shortly after we did. Ralph and Shirley
were also out to enjoy the beautiful day. Our cruiser friend Ken Keel
was next in line. He
said, he felt a lot better this week.
We surely missed our good cruiser friend, Ken Kaelble, with his
beautiful 2006 Dodge Ram Truck. We were informed, that Ken had a heart
attack and fell at a cruise he and his friends were attending in Apopka.
He was on life support but was still unconscious. As of this writing, we
are not sure of his chances to recover. This is not good and we hope all
of you will remember him and his family in prayer.
Greg and Rhonda were out with their Red 1974 AMC Gremlin X1-40 series.
we think he will move it to Saturday Night with the new ruling. We are
losing our
older cruisers. Around 7 o'clock, Mr. Pontiac arrived with his 1979
Pontiac. Ike and Nancy were with us again tonight. They generally make
it once a month.
They have a beautiful Candy Apple Red 1977 Corvette. Jon and Angie
Strode were out with their 1978 Pontiac Firebird Formula. Debbie had a
little trouble last week with her battery but she was back tonight in
good spirits. Dennis and his wife Linda had their 1986 Monte Carlo out
to cruise. There were many new ones and we had a total of 215 vehicles
that signed up to cruise the brick streets of Old Town. Many of them
chose not to cruise. We do believe this is a record for a regular Friday
Night Cruise.
On a sadder note, we had a few near misses tonight. Some cruisers just
don't want to follow our simple rules. They want to buck the line and
not willing to take their turn in the cruise. Our staff does a good job
but they can't be everywhere. So cruisers come and cruise with us and
not against us. We put a lot of money in our cruisers and don't want
them damaged by someone who is not willing to wait for their turn. Lets
keep it safe.
Our Cruise-O-Matic will go to $175.00 next week. Joe really tried to
give it away but no takers tonight. Our 50/50 was $44.00 and Jennifer
from Casselberry was the lucky winner.
See you all next week!
