Default Pics from Mars..........

This past Friday Tim and I went to Mars, PA for Tom Henry's car show and for Scott Settlemire's Picnic. I had a great time but man was it hot!!!! It took us 4.5 hrs to get to Mars and it's the most my car's driven in 6 yrs! I think it was in shock! I wish I could've gotten more pics but the heat held me back some as there were times I thought I was gonna pass out It was nice to see Thor close up and get a few nice pics of it along with his mom's SS and the other 5 gens at the picnic. The food was so delicious too and many thanks for all those that participated.

Here's what I took this past weekend....pics from The Starlight Cruise on Friday night I still have to edit/add. I'll post those later

Thanks. Well I used the 10-20 for the most part but at the farm I used the 50-500 for a few shots too.

Yeah Tom was pretty nice. I didnt get to talk to him much but he seemed really down to earth. One couple was taking delivery of their '10 Camaro that day but we missed the unveiling by a few moments. They live in MD not far from us if I remember correctly. They were really nice as well. In fact EVERYONE was nice that we saw. Even when we were at the car show Friday night people would just start talking to me and were just so nice! Unlike here in VA where they wouldn't even say hello!
