jstrutt Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 That's nice of you Rich. You can hold them with the big screen tv you're holding for me now. This isn't Yuma so Walmart isn't open at 6 a.m. I'll drive down some side streets and borrow a couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Y Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 John, there is a 24 hour WalMart across the street to the east from the Lowes. If you get there early, you can snag some chairs before we leave.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YumaZ06 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 First of all I want to thank everyone who assisted me when I got stupid and messed my car up. I am home now and it drove ok on the way home, though the steering wheel was not centered but off to the right. I have a ice pack on my forehead because after I got home and looked at my baby I started banging my head on the wall....STOOPID me, cold tires and not having enough sense to get off of it. Oh well, after stopping at the Texaco to get the stones and "wood" out from the wheel and bead of the tire (tires are ok but the rims look curbed). Special thanks to Yuma Rich and Janie who followed me home to make sure I got here ok. Dwayne, I owe you one for the assit with the tow truck driver getting me out of there. Thanks again, dazed and confused in Yuma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert and Elizabeth Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 We had a great time today seeing everyone. Except for 2 sacrificial lambs to the LEOs and one other boo boo by Yuma ZO6, it went very well. The food was great and plentiful and the company was spectacular. A very special thanks to Jammye, Dwayne and Rebecca for putting this together for all of us. We felt very relaxed and happy to be a part of this. I am so happy we sang happy birthday to you Dwayne! Your face during the singing was priceless! Looking forward to next year's event already! R & E~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1EvilC5 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Just made it back home after stopping at the car wash to get the Vette washed. It was hard parking a dirty Vette next to all the clean and sharp Vettes.Thanks to the Tomko family for host the annual Gila Bend cruise BBQ. Great job with all the food and hosting.Till next time, Phil... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YumaZ06 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 . Looks like someone was looking out for you.Yes they were. Really only superficial damage from what I can tell. Front fasica is cracked, lower middle air splitter is toast and some scratches on the drivers side, curb rash on both wheels. These cars are durable!!! Car goes in to the best body shop on Monday (recommended by insurance company). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
