Wowzer! The party started for Us Thursday night and did not stop till Sunday night,ouch!! Friday got rolling by cruising up to Shady Gators, trying out some ramps and enjoying the views.:D. Then again to Dock Knockers, and off to a rock and roll party!! You never have to drive on a public road unless You want too! Saturday went smoothley Gordons and others brought lots of stuff. Then it was off to the boat races. No one looked at the races boats as We cruised by. Winter Sucks was yelled in agreement by many there! Once again My bumper sticker! We got VIP parking at Gators. They put in a custom pool. Guess what ? The ramp they had put in was wide enough for Amphicars. Roger talked with Owner. Next thing, Margie is yelling at Me that it is a stupid idea!!! Your going to go off the cliff!, You will hit the rocks,on and on and on. I drive in and Dave Chapman helps locate the car, then in comes Kamakazi Ken, Then Roger Sallee. String bikinis really like VIP places and really like Amphicars:D. So We will probably be in Hot Boat magazine and maybe I may be in Hot Rod magazine, many thought the primer and mags looked cool.
We cruised back to Alhonna for Kens famous crawdad. Once again excellent!!! Brian AYCrombie went out of his way to make trophys. Ken came in first with "Most Potential" and I got second.
Then the mayhem began :012: Did Dave Chapman actually sing madonna's like a virgin? Did the crowd really throw bottles? Was I there?:005:. It was past really friggin good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Later Dave the oh man was that good Wave

Davey Wavey,

Great to read about members having fun with their cars, a change from the latest chatter. Saw the photo of your car on the trailer with the matching aluminun wheels, lookin' good, glad the wheels worked and fit. BW 2 is running and swimming in these here Pa. lakes (when not pissing off park Rangers) having fun but swimmin' season is about over. Attached is a photo to remind you of the yellow Amphi days, attracts girls like a big yellow magnet.

Take care,

Ron & Carol

Hi Ron,

What's with you guys in Western PA ticking off all the park rangers!* :)** Maybe you need to take them for a ride or something.** Here in the Eastern portion of Pennsyltucky, the park rangers all seem rather friendly towards Amphi.

Glad to see that the Yellow Amphi is all spruced up and swimming.* My elbow still hurts when I look at it but that is another story! ;-)

Cheers,

Mike

Mike:

There was only one park manager really involved. But surely you couldn't be
referring to one of those rides that end up in the Jersey Meadowlands!

Thanks for these pictures... I can't tell you how much I enjoy them. I'm hoping to get my Amphi into the water for its first sea trials this weekend and need all the moral support possible. It has taken 4 months to get to this point and untold dollars. I hope to one day be sending pictures too! - azpaul50 of the Western Amphi Fleet

Guys,

What a fab time, thanks to all that were there for the hospitality and those that weren't - well you missed a great event with perfect weather !

I've just got back from the airport. The guy from the US TSA who had opened my cases saw the picture I always have in there of Amphi and wrote on them "nice car !"

I've just thrown a few pics up on www.amphicars.com Should get a chance at the weekend to sort it properly, have a load of work-work to catchup with first.

David,

Oh sure, rub it in.

Instead of making it to the Ozarks, I have been here in Hampshire, UK under overcast skies for the past week.

Looks like you brought back a little bit of sunshine but I head back tomorrow.

24 hours sooner and we would have been passing each other in the air.

Cheers,

Mike
