The toy drive was not a go. There's not enough time to make the necessary contacts and arrangements. Sadly, I have let that portion drop.

We had a great time with the few Mustangs that showed and the 2 we ended up making the ride with. I think my bones are finally unthawing, that wind was brutal!! The Vermont country store and that little winery will be great for Christmas gifts!! We're definitely going back.

Every time I go up that way Skiing the wife asks me to stop there (VT Country Store) on the way back and pick up something.

Due to some weather the ride was moved up to Saturday and we had a surprise or two in store for us.... 1st- Craig from Mass Mustang brought his sweet GT/SC black beauty. Although he couldn't ride with us he stopped by to meet us and share his enthusiasm for the cruise, the NE Rally effort and expressed his thanks for the invite. He assured us that he and the rest of Mass Mustang will be ready to cruise come spring. One of the guys has a Saleen/Parnelli Jones Mustang. Another has a Cervini Mustang. These will be great to see! 2nd- Sean, the founder of New England Rally, joined us. He and Karoline are always up for a nice ride. I think he knew we were going by the Vermont Country Store. Karoline didn't know Dunkin Donuts was a hard find out there.... 3rd- Due to some unplanned snow on the roads up Rt. 9 Paul had to turn and head out. All things condsidered I would have done the same. Those sweet wheels/tires are not ready for anything resembling snow. Bob had his off-road tires (you should see the tread!) and Sean had his all-seasons. I was leading the pack so I benefited from no spray from cars in front. Paul made it home safely and I can certainly appreciate him for coming out and giving it a go. No one expected the snow on that road. Here are my photos: www.putfile.com/daleclough/images/163461 Here are Bob's: www.putfile.com/sohcman/images/163301Overall a good time. Hope to see some of you on the 8th in Norwich. Cheers!

Some great pics there! It was a blast even though it was COLD.
I'll send Steve at Tire Warehouse a message and see if he wants to do a winter special for us.
I have continental all seasons. I love them.
