Killer party today. Yes I got home on Saturday, just 10 min ago. Might need some tires now, and a haircut, but good trip home.

Awesome drive down with Galassi and Carlos, nice tour of almost all of Southern Calif getting there , lots of fun blasting out of toll booths, right Carlos?

Sorry if anybody didn't get any pizza

Nice to see everybody,

don't miss the toy drive cruise next month!

[Jim Ratto]

oh yeah, the book...... off the chart, too many cool pictures and stories. Need to get a copy of my own. I didn't want to ruin those there with my greasy pizza hands

[Jason Foster]

I had a great time too what a gathering. Great drive home with Ratto and Carlos.

  So your the reason I didn't get any pizza.
 
Keith the book is AMAZING can't wait to get my own copy.
 
                                          Also THANKS so much to Doug for hosting a fantastic celebration!


 I am honored to of been a part of it.

What a day! Wow! Great people, great beer, great food and great balls of fire great weather! Thanks everyone for coming - it was a (memorable) blast!

[WCB Hitler's Hot Rod]

Looks like I missed a good one, and practically in my backyard! Still lying in bed with my meds   I was really looking forward to going too. Congrats Keith on your new book. Can't wait to get a copy.

[Rick Sadler]

Great Cover

[Rennsurfer]

Oh, no... not MORE images.

We pulled up after lunch and parked next to this cat.


Most of the cars present.


Nicely done 911.


People were/are very stoked on Keith's new book.


Wocket.


Fasrnu.


Greg B. brought a round car, also.


Bill, signing Russell's book.


Russell took Bill's car for a drive on a lovely day in the uncrowded canyon. Sounds good, in theory... yes?


And off he went.


Here's Russell, upon his return... backing the car in it's space, again.


I hope that I'm not letting the cat outta the bag too soon... but here's Russell, Bill, and a title to a car. Could this be a 2-for-1 deal for Russell? Looks like a bigger shipping container will be in order, back to Scotland.


A small gathering, of sorts.


Keith and some guy trying to gain publicity. Stalkerazzi, no doubt.


Kids playin' on the lawn.


The more I see Dave's car, the more I dig and appreciate it.


Another aspect of the overall effect, such that it is.


What better spot to catch a sunset?


Cover cars, in this case, look good from any angle.


More attendees rollin' in.


Plenty of good food, bier, and great people to converse with, throughout the day.


Mr. Crawford pulled up and acquired rockstar parking status. And rightfully so.


Pilot's quarters.


Front view.


Was good to take the '67 out, today. Perfect weather, an awesome no traffic drive through a desolate canyon road, and good times in general.


The reason we all gathered.


Keith, your book is fully worth the wait. That... my friend, is a mild understatement. I can't wait to take some time and read it cover to cover. Doug & Leslie, thank you for opening your home and your generous hospitality. Sarge & Sharon, congrats on that book cover. VERY cool! To everyone else, we had a blast hangin' out with you. Like the thread title says; what a great day, indeed.

[Susy]

Keith - what a great book.  We can't wait to sit down and read it cover to cover!  Really looking forward to getting our copy on Tuesday - Thank You!

Thank you so very much for dedicating your book to Mark.  That was so awesome & speciial to do and seeing his picture in the front of the book was a real honor.  I really hope you will always know how much that means & meant to us!  

Thank you again Doug & Leslie for hosting the party.  It was such a beautiful day, and a great time had by all.

Russell, it was great to see you again.  It is always a pleasure to talk with you!

and fred; thanks for spelling beer like it should be spelled BIER, bier comes from Belgium! 

Yes, Sir! I agree. To me, the American spelling doesn't deserve my respect because most of the breweries (mainstream) produce quantity and not quality. I've always favored non-U.S. biers since I was in my late teens.

Back to the book..
