Greetings Group, Things are getting chilly in the Inland Empire. Only 44 degrees when we left home for our last event of the year at Farmer Boys in Riverside. We bundled up since the only heater in our modified AH 100 is the cigarette lighter.
We arrived after a spirited drive through San Timoteo Canyon and as usual Jimmie Davis was already there. He always beats us there. We were glad to see him with his Healey. As we were still backing into our spot, four more of our group arrived, en masse, like a small parade. It was going to be a good day.
We ended up with a new record of 24 attendees and 11 classic cars as well as some stunning future classics.
There were also Give Girst timers to our event. One in particular, Roger Jozel, came up from Long Beach in his, new to him, '16 Jaguar F-Type convertible. Welcome all, come again when you can.
Since there were more of us for breakfast, we Gilled the restaurant and sort of took over the table seating area. I don't think the staff minded that we shoved tables together. We are a good tipping group.
