Hi ALL,
I hope you are having a good Turkey Day. Our December drive will be over to the Gulf Coast to join about 200-300 classic cars in the Magic Toy Parade. If you would like to drive together, we will be meeting at the Cracker Barrel in Slidell and leaving there by 11:15AM. See below for details. We will drive the interstate all the way there. The meeting place in Biloxi is a parking lot next door to the Isle of Capri Casino. As usual, the contact phone number is 1-888-883-0903.
Do not confuse this with a slow New Orleans parade. Last year I drove as slow as 30MPH up to 120MPH. So, it is a rather quick parade.
This is the last drive for this year so, I wish you all Happy Holidays.
Sincerely,
Kelly
