Is it too early to start asking who's going or thinking of going? We usually drive the rail over Saturday. Not sure if we'll get a room yet.

Byran you going to do a plan a buggy cruise again this year?

Yay! Y'all did a great cruise last year.
It has been predicted that with all the rain we have had over the winter months, wildflower production should be outstanding this spring and early summer.
We actually had snow last Friday. Wasn't sticking, but it was a freaking blizzard with silver dollar size flakes. I could not see 50 feet through it. The ground was far to warm for anything sticking.

We'll be there, prob not till later Friday night, so we will join on everyone on Saturday. We will probably go wine'ing at some point, can't go to Fredricksburg without wine'ing and shopping. This is our first Fredricksburg meet, so we'll play it by ear on the show.

Forecast looks favorable

Actually it doesn't anymore. We are out.

If anyone needs a room, I still have a reservation and a free registration to the show.

We are going to take the company suite to the ACM concert instead.

Y'all have fun

Does anyone remember if there are VW's on display on Saturday? I know there is a cruise at 2pm and then the dinner at 6pm. Sunday is the official show, but we can only make it on Saturday and didn't want to find an empty park.
Thanks,

There will be people camping there. The best chance for viewing on Saturday is the cruise and dinner. Or just stand on the corner in town and they will drive by all day long. Hoping the rain isn't too bad for Saturday/Sunday.

We canceled our reservation for Friday night due to the rain, 80%. We still have our reservation for Saturday night. We do not have a enclosed trailer and do not wish to pump water out of the buggy again. See y'all then.

What an adventurous weekend. Old Mother Nature tried to slow us down, but she only gave us an adventure and some fantastic memories.

Bryan, thank you for the spectacular cruises. Both Saturday and Sunday. Man, this is exactly what these cars are all about. After a weekend like this, I am reminded why I love my buggy. It's because it has allowed me to meet some of the best people on the planet. Those who couldn't make it, you were missed. Those of us who were there, hated to see it end.

I hope all had safe travels home.

Great time as always folks. The rain was certainly there but our spirits never dampened. More adventures as we discovered awesome hot tub at Oakwood. Who needs a man cave when a hot tub is around the corner? Thanks Gloria,Tanna and Delores for the fun. We found it can accommodate more than four, so next year come on in gals the waters fine! (Christie Hebert, this means you!)

Thank you Bryan and Billy for the great breakfasts, and cruises. Mother Nature provided a splendor of beautiful wild flowers and we were able to have Two long cruises and even saw Fred!! The short cruise Sunday evening was beautiful too and saw several deer grazing.

Charley and I appreciate the fun and fellowship that this club offers. Thank you for including us, these trips are a wonderful addition to our life.

Everyone stay safe and healthy and Lord willing we will see you all at the Blast.
