July 13th 2013 Excelsior Cruze-In
Well dodged a bullet again, 4 inches of rain overnight and ominous looking Saturday morning but the cars started coming with a few first timers and a couple of surprises [see photos].
15 cars showed up which ain’t bad since another popular show was held that day. Had another door prize drawing which Doug Plocek helped with to pick the winners and have enough “Door” prizes left for the next show on July 27th so don’t miss another chance to be a winner! Nice mix of Cars again but the surprise was a very cool stock looking antique boat fitted with a jet-ski running gear, very clever.
Another attraction was the Fly-over by a B17 from a local Air Show. Gotta say there is nothing like the sound of a four prop huge plane, really cool!
So while I am rambling on I may as while mention that I need to hear from some of you for the Catholic Eldercare Cruze-In this coming Wednesday the 17th from 1 to 3pm sure would appreciate some of your time to help make the day for the residents. Need to have a Car/Head count for the facility as there will be a hot dog lunch and some pretty cool door prizes. Check my Blog by Tracy for Photos and info on the Catholic Eldercare Show.

June 29th Tonka Cruzers Car Show
June 29th Tonka Cruzers Car Show ... again dodged the rain even as the morning started out "iffy", lucky, lucky! Had 28 cars and 7 newcomers which [see photos] make it interesting.
The day turned out nice with the sun eventually coming out.
Had quite a number of folks come in to take a look at the cars on display and drooling over their favorites [but not on them!].
At 11:30 had a drawing for the door prizes by Justin a nice young boy who's father proudly stood by to watch his son do a great job of [closed his eyes while drawing] the license plate numbers collected for the door prizes. Prizes were picked by the winners in the order they were drawn.
See the picture of him [Justin] in my '49 - nice young man and future car guy one can hope.
Fourteen door prizes were drawn and have more for the next show on July 13th so come maybe you will be a lucky recipient of a great door prize at that show.
Anyway have a great 4th and no car show this weekend but Cruze on in on the 13th and see who shows up on that date.
Get some of your friends to attend next show with their cars or as spectators and have a safe Happy 4th.
