    Not sure yet, but I will absolutely do that! Do you have an estimate of when you'll be here?

    It was a near perfect day. Sunny, slight breeze, low 70s.

    We got together at the park and checked out each others cars. I think Bzacon wins the 'most stuff on his car' award hands down (pink with the roof rack). I won for highest miles at just under 80k. Failsatheals win for lowest miles at just around 4k on his 2018. Those are the awards I just made up, so feel free to give yourself a made up award too haha.

    I didn't take a ton of pictures, but here are a few:

    Here we are all lined up at the park.

    We went for a short walk and checked out the lake front. It has a beautiful view.

    We hung out at the park for a few hours. The weather was just about perfect.

    Most of us are here in the picture.

    Then in the early afternoon headed back to Spork's place to get some food. Thankfully, she has a nice small parking lot in the back of her place that worked perfectly for us.

    After we got some food, we did some work on some cars. We attempted a fog light install on Sporks car. We got Bzacons rear sway bar installed, and a good chunk of time was spent sitting around Bzacon's car trying to figure out the newest version of ETACS decoder software to enable his cruise and many other miscellaneous settings he wanted to change.

    We were even visited by some local wildlife who apparently like small fuel efficient cars too. There were two little fawns with spots still chasing each other around. It was very cute.

    We hung out for the rest of the afternoon and at least into the early morning. We talked cars, urban legend, finances, and many other topics. It was quite entertaining. Bzacon and myself stayed until midnight, and the rest stayed overnight and camped out.

    I hope to hear from the others soon as Failsatheals and Poorman1 had quite the drive home.


    So, a BIG THANK YOU to Spork for setting this up! Everyone seemed to have a great time. I really hope to have another one next year (hint hint Spork ) and I hope to see more of you there!

    Arriving early since I came straight from a house showing at 9:00 I got to walk around the park awhile, then spork and daox showed up and the meet began.


    Total lineup:5, plus 1 metro observer


    Just a playful fawn.

    Pleasure meeting everyone, and nice to get to see Poorman1 and spork again. It was a day well spent. Supper was highlighted by Impossible burgers, rice and beans, guacamole and white wine.

    And talked about the campfire until shortly after 1:00am.


    bzacon, If you're ever around West Allis or if I ever am around St Francis these will be in my glovebox.


    For year two I might be coming in the correct kind of three cylinder who knows.

    No kidding - nicely done!

    I especially liked how you arranged the fawns to make an appearance. Looks like a wonderful venue for a get-together.
