Ok, I said thanks in the photo thread, But I wanted to put it in here, too!


Thanks to EVERYONE for making this freak from Canadia(hahaha, Don.) feel welcome.

Things like this weekend are part of the reason I fell in love with the xB, and the Scion brand. That sense of community, and camaraderie that existed pretty much from the moment the first box rolled in, to the moment the last car rolled out. The absolute vibe the people have truly makes SHorberg's "One Love" thing true.
So for that, thanks, guys and gals.

And on another, less sappy note, Thanks to ScionSteve for keeping me up all night Saturday drinking! the look on the border guards' face when I told her I'd been awake for 36 Hours made it all worth it!

Thank You Alex and Wilsons car dealship for a wonderful show.

I am also Honored to have the Toy Box recognized.
After 1225.3 total round trip miles not including the driving in Ames we made it home just in time for me to hang out with the gang at Paul Brown stadium for a show there. I enjoyed every mile well almost, Indy did have traffic from the 500 but other than that great. I got to meet many wonderful peeps and see some unique rides.

I will definitely put this show on my list for years to come.

Here's hoping the rest of the year will be Pleasent to everyone.

Peace

I'm not sure who the Photographer was but in the x-rated world I believe it's call the money shot LOL I'd like to have a copy of the pic of JDMJim and the 2nd Gen xB at the stop in the Park if possible.

There are actually like 6 water crossings on that road. I only took it because I knew all the cars on this trip could make it without issue and they did.

The kids standing next to the water were disappointed that we didn't splash them though...

I would have watered the kids and the grass. I love the water crossings at the ledges. I really wish I could have made the last cruise.
