Thursday, August 27
The first visitor: Bowling Green's Sheriff Joe
Jakub, obviously enjoying his new C7.

The setup, from various
angles. Cool drone photo of the southwest side of the
fairground. My tent & car are circled. Corvette engineer Damien Zink discussing 2016
features with a fan.
Friday evening A major surprise at the
Chip Miller Foundation dinner: G. Gordon Liddy and his ZR-1!
Saturday, August 29 This is the BIG ONE, and it requires an early start to avoid lo-o-ong lines to get in! In place @ 5:58 am.
There's my driver: Adam
Ford in his 54 that was my Celebrity
Pick in 2012.
Guest of honor, Chip
Foose, signed this poster, personalized for me... ...and also signed my fuel rail cover. THANK
YOU Pam Powell for standing in line 3x to get these done for me as I was stuck
at my table!
The hood gained 6

the Oval" $100 donation group! Tim Eisentrant leaves his mark. Ruth Exline joins the group. EJ Wiley finds a spot.
Sunday, August 30 I spent a leisurely day packing up and visiting
around. Perfect timing: just as I started the car at
2:25 to head south - the rain started!
Monday, August 31 After an overnight in Dublin VA, it was an uneventful trip the rest of the way home. I couldn't resist capturing these 2 fleeting
odometer incidents. Home! (And I know what's
waiting inside.) Final stats for the round trip.
