I've been trying to think of "any" excuse for not going to Cleveland. Flo's favorite niece put in for her vacation when we said we were coming up so we are pretty much obligated to go. We don't have our usual excitement about getting ready for a trip with all our buggy friends. I so hate we aren't going to be there. I know you guys are going to have a blast.

I snorted coffee out my nose when I noticed some of the names, High Falutin, Ding Bats, Dirty Dancing, One Bad Mother in Law, The Newer Bigger One Bad Mother, Angry Beaver and maybe my favorite.... Say What???

Me too, Ken. I'm not sure what those names say about our friend Billy's taste, but if the names are any indication, it should be a fun fireworks show. :lol:

Why can I see Delia shaking her head and chuckling a bit?
It's a good thing the Nevada Fire Dept. will be on call.

Oh, my............I can see we missed yet another Star Spangled Event at the Blair's! :( Looks like they just keep getting better and better. In the 3rd pic below Ken, aka "Coilman", what are those called? I called them "Spider Mums". They are gorgeous!! Also, a pic we got from Gloria showed one that looked like the Aurora Borealis. What is that called? I guess I am pyrotechnically illiterate. Sorry.
Thanks again to Billy and Gloria for hosting the Club and obviously LOTS of friends and neighbors. What an event!
Oh, and HRH Roxy still rocks! What a cutie-pie! :D

If anyone is missing a plastic container please let me know. I have one left from the party last night and would like to get it back to the owner. Thanks.

I want to say thanks for inviting us to this fabulous party. The food was great. There were a lot of friends to visit with. AND then there were fireworks........ I think the folks that saw the Kaboomtown show missed out. We saw a better show and did not have to fight traffic. I really was not expecting to see a professional type show. My ears are still ringing. The pictures look great, but they just don't capture the whole experience. I did notice that there was a full moon when the show started. At the end of the show only 1/2 of the moon was left. Great shooting...... If you missed this one, you really missed out of a wonderfull time.

What a great weekend with some of our TexasManxClub family... was great to see all of you and we missed seeing all that couldn't make it.

Thank you Gloria and Billy for sharing your home with us.
The show was a solid hour of continuous, larger than life, in your face, over the top awesomeness.

Greg, great pictures. Thanks for sharing.

Only downside to the entire weekend was the parking lot we hit just south of Waco.

Oh and Amanda is doing just fine and we are still waiting for Iris to arrive. I'll keep y'all posted.

Wow,!! It looks like it was a "blast". We really missed a good time with our buggy family. Our trip up North was long overdue with my family or we would have been here with you all. We are BACK now and looking forward to the round up and seeing everyone. Keep in mind some of the "stories" of the weekend to share with us as we love to hear all about it. Glad all went well, good to be home.

Wish Karen and I had partied with you guys. We went to Kaboomtown. Good fireworks, but 1 1/2 hours to get back home. Have a fresh engine in the buggy and looking forward to meeting everyone at the Buggy Blast!!
