Re: 2014 Moonshine Festival
You boys have a great time this weekend. Hope the weather holds for you. (Out here on
the Best Coast, the monsoons have set in, but we can't complain after a great Indian Summer.) Be sure to post up some pics! VIC: Many thanks for your "creative" pinups these past few months. They were a hoot! Robb |

Re: 2014 Moonshine Festival
Vic, et al: sorry the last minute snafu......Margretha is scheduled for another eye surgery, as I explained on the phone. She was in tears over missing the fun, but could not be helped. Post lots of pictures; we'll try to make it to the Spring Fordbarn Florida meet! Green 50, put the ID tags in the mail and I'll send payment plus postage, please! 236 Main Street, Walnut Grove, MS 39189

Re: 2014 Moonshine Festival
We're back home as of 3 pm central today. The crowd was shoulder-to-shoulder. We wanted to leave the show early afternoon on Saturday and could not get out. Every lane was blocked. Luckily, my son drove the wife up in her car so we left the '40 and came back about dark and got it. The infrastructure in the area just can't handle the crowds. As we drove towards GA 400 the traffic was backed up for miles. I'll bet the local non-car folks hate to see this come every year. The good part is there were more cars than you could look at and the weather was perfect.
I'm was sorry to hear Ms Margretha needs more surgery. We missed them and pray for God's guidance for the surgeon and a quick recovery. The Friday cruise was excellent. Thanks to Vic for promoting it all year ( sorry Lawson) and to Gene and Sarah for the planning. We had a great time and enjoyed meeting people and putting faces with the avatars. There were even some White Knuckles on the curves in the mountains. Last edited by 40cpe; 10-26-2014 at 04:08 PM. |

Re: 2014 Moonshine Festival
Made it Sat for a few hours for my first time. Me thinks the festival plus the car show are too much of a good thing for the size of the town. Met a few folks but would be nice if Barn members would put their ID on the windshields entry.
Definitely a unique show that should be on everyone todo list |

Re: 2014 Moonshine Festival
Bill, Just follow the oil trail you left going south and you will be fine. I'll probably smell the smoke when you go by! LOL. I'm glad you guys have had a fun trip. Stay safe.
