I got here Sunday at noon and there were plenty of old Fords parked all around the hotel parking lots for those who would want to come and look at them. As you well know, based on the gatherings you have promoted, it's difficult to please all the people all the time.

John, I agree with you about not being able to please everyone however, as we all know, ours is not a cheap hobby to be involved in, and for the EFV8 Club, trying to save a few dollars on hotel rooms comes at the expense of all the members that can't take time off during the work week. I'm sure that, given the choice, most members would opt to pay a bit more for a hotel room, if it enabled them to attend the meet... I'm just sayin'
