Well, Saturday night Chris, SUBARUPOWERTIME (my boyfriend Brett, that many of you know) and I were sitting around my house, and Chris had the idea that since it was a long weekend, we should do a bit of road-tripping. We were going to visit PA, but Larry wasn't feeling well Saturday, so we hit up Fastbird (Sean) and let him know that we would meet up with him on Sunday!

We arrived in Fort Wayne on Sunday around noon (we traveled from Metro Detroit, it took 2 hours 45 minutes... easy trip), saw the new crib he has with his family, and hit up the local Quaker Steak and Lube for some food and some LTxTech chat. It was good to meet Sean again; I met him briefly at the Shootout in 2010, but that was my first year in attendance and my brain was on overload from meeting everyone. LOL

It was great to have our little LTxTech crew to travel out to meet up with Fastbird, as he said, "he was expecting unexpected visitors." Unfortunately, Ben (Call911) was working, and it would have been great to all meet up together. But it sounds like we may be doing some meet-ups around Fort Wayne and in Detroit over the summer. I would love to have some of the LTxTechers come over my place or go to Fort Wayne this summer and for a giant LTx car bash during some weekends. I know Ryan Stout said he would be interested...

Sounds like we will have a good time this year guys!

No problem Popo, I was lucky to have a three day weekend, so we wanted to take advantage of it! Enjoy your anniversary!

Those are never fun... I had one in '08 and I hated it. I don't like not being able to feel anything from your waste below, it's terrible and scary. I'll keep you in my thoughts Popo man!

I gotta say, you guys made my day coming down. I haven't gotten to hang out like that in a LONG time save for the couple times Ben and I have gotten together since the move. You three REALLY brightened my day showing up like that! Can't wait to do it again!

I'm glad we made your day Sean! It's great to have you back on Tech... You are a true asset to the community! I can't wait to visit down there or have you guys come up here! Lots of fun to be had!

Let me know too when the next one is, I'm only 2.5 hours from detroit and it doesn't look like I'm that much farther from Ft Wayne either.

Maybe we should do an event at the Woodward Dream Cruise every year.

I was watching the coverage on HORESEPOWER TV... looked like alot of fun.

The Dream Cruise is insanity for any car person... Brett and I literally live on Woodward every weekend during the summer. It's a car guy's Mecca. Ask Meissen, he knows. Woodward is great, and I hope that we have some LTx visitors to the area this year to hang out. I'm down to have guests... Brett and I would love it!

Maybe we could have an LTX GTG right on the strip... I can imagine its hard to find any real estate during the BIG week

I should have a fairly normal schedule by this summer of work rotations, I wouldn't mind coming up for woodward.

Between Woodward or my Meet & Greet - any weekend you guys want to come up to Detroit we'll show you guys a good time out on Woodward. :thumbsup:

It's always a blast up here in the summer. This is a must this year.

Had fun shooting the shit in Ft Wayne.

Agreed. http://mifbody.com/gallery/index.php/2012 -- this is just what I could handle attending last year (meaning I definitely didn't do half of what I could have done). Car cruising and car shows in Michigan are such a big thing that there's a monthly magazine dedicated to publishing weekly cruise-ins, cruises, and car shows (titled "Cruis'News").

Good luck getting in there on a day they are filiming. That place is small and a waste of time

Having spent 2007-2010 in Collinsville IL (just outside StL), I highly recommend the Budweiser plant. :D

Sorry again I missed the visit. I love my job, but don't always love the lifestyle of sacrificing the time away from family and friends when work needs me.

I look forward to seeing you guys again soon. Sean and I will definately visit, and on behalf of the Ft Wayne car scene, I welcome anyone out who wants to come.
