Conestoga Chapter Birthday Bash!

[Dads Baby]

We had a great gathering to celebrate our 41st birthday. We started out by meeting about 5 miles from the Mt Vernon Country Club and then caravaned to the club. After a great brunch (I ate a lot!), we headed over to Ray and Catherine Petros' house. Last year when we were there, I didn't get to see their toy collection. I vowed not to miss it this year! All I can say is "WOW!" I didn't take very many pictures of the toys because I was really overwhelmed![:0] We had some different cars show up today which of course is always cool! My wife and I finally met Stuart Tritt. He drove in from Nebraska in his 84 Avanti. Ok. I will quit babbling and show some pictures.











All my pictures can be found here.

I've always wanted to drive my 55 Conestoga to one of your meets, Quite a drive from Tulsa to anywhere in Colorado. And Colorado is such a beautiful state.

The national will be in Co Springs in a couple of years! Start planning now! 2013 will be here before you know it!

Gary,
We are very fortunate to be a part of this chapter! The quality of people and cars is incredible! Ray can tell you a story about every toy he has! Mind boggling! It would take me hours to take pictures of all his toy cars. Way too cool!

Anyone else have one of these?
