I guess I'm hitting up some pool party tonight in Downtown Phoenix.
Let me know if any meets come up... I'd like to come out and introduce myself.

Hey whats up. I live in Avondale also. Just got my car 2 days ago. I really don't do much around here. Busy with work and the family. What did you move out here for?

Theres pavillions on the weekend.

There's also a car show on 83rd & Beardsley on Saturday nights which is a lot closer to Avondale. Just keep watching this section as they usually try and meet somewhere during week nights too.

Yeah, there's definitely more old school stuff than newer. I can't say it's the size if the Pavillion's but there's a pretty damn good turnout (more so when it's cooler out). There was a bunch of LSx cars going out for a while but they really seemed to have died down a bit. I went last week and it was pretty damn hot out. I'm sure it will pick up again when it cools off.

Yeah, It was at the top of this hotel. It was called "adult swim"...
My buddy is dating some chick with connections so I got in as >21... Had a pretty good time... other than the $4 for a can of Bud... I had to switch to redbull & Vodka...

I don't know about you guys but I'm about done with this heat... It's exhausting the hell out of me.

It takes about 2 years to get use to the heat. I work in a shop with only swamp coolers. The bay doors aren't usually closed because the the vehicles are to big to fit in the bay. Also it helps that I work out in my garage. Since I sweat so much in the garage because its so hot the heat outside doenst bother me as much.

Well it's actually hotter where I'm from. (believe it or not)... I don't know if you guys have ever traveled to Havasu-Laughlin in the summer...

Moving in this weather just about killed me. I'm turning in some applications today... wish me luck. I need a job!!

Let me know if there are any meets worth showing up to.. I'll check it out.
