Thread: Granbury Parking Party - 3/24/07

    Thumbs up Thanks!

    Thanks MadMerv for your invitation and hospitality! You have a great house and an amazing garage. I'm sure your are the only one out there with a 12 car garage (with pictures!) - that should boost your property's value for sure!

    And it was nice to meet even more folks, match cars with screen names and real names with faces! Great weather, great folks and a great drive!

    That's Bill Preston's car, he just picked it up last night. It's the retractable hardtop.

    We had a good time as well, absolutely beautiful area. My wife and I drove on down to Glen Rose and checked out the dino tracks. Saw lots of deer and turkeys. Weather and scenery couldn't have been better.

    Ha ha bout the BUR. That was a lady from the Lone Star club named Lucy. She's been friends with Merv a long time and was in attendance at Miatas at in Indy in 94 or 95. It only has 79k miles.

    We tried to fit a credit card or a drivers license between my dad's black car and Cam's red car. They wouldn't fit.

    Cam I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. I tried to meet everyone I didn't know today.

    Well a friend was coming to work up 377 today and he said he saw about 20 miatas heading down. I told him about what was going on. Does anyone care to guess the miata that caught his eye the most?

    I think Helen Keller would've noticed Billy's car.

    I used to have an audio file of Helen Keller sings the blues from Deaf Jam Records...it was great..LOL

    being noticed has turned out to be a good thing.

    Thanks for the mass invite to your amazing house. I was telling all my other friends about it and they were in awe of the giant garage.
    Blah blah blah!

    Thanks Merv for the invite. I enjoyed seeing everyone. Very nice garage...and nice house also. Hey MiataMike...his new garage makes that one in Grandbury look tiny!!!

    I got lost leaving and ended up leaving through another gate...managed to find 144 and get to 377 and saw more of Grandbury than I wanted. That's what I get for asking an old man on a golf cart for directions. I told him I came in 167...but he looked puzzled and gave me the directions to the gate from 3210. Did you guys see all the golf carts? Must have been 10 or so, many with weather shielding on them...going about 10 mph down the middle of the road. Geez.

    Merv, I now think you're too young to live in that community!!!

    Later,
