Well, a picnic gathering right on the ocean is a great backdrop for exchanging Ford adventures. Especially with the parking area around the pavilion filled with old Fords and the blue ocean behind them. Barb and I will certainly host the cookout and I am sure participants will kick in to the modest pavilion fee. Maybe Jeff (Very Tangled) will post some Howard Park pictures he took at the last meet to stimulate interest. Maybe some short area tours. Plenty of spots on Tampa Bay to visit.
Just some thoughts to encourage other folks to chime in with their thoughts to help Vic in his planning.
