knightfan26917 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 * I haven't had time to write anything new for Motor Gnomes recently, but something that my friend, Don, wrote on his 10/10/2011 post, caught my attention...because I agree: A love a club that wants to drive and enjoy cars. His post here: http://www.motorgnomes.com/2011/10/miata-car-clubs/ I see so many clubs having well-attended events, including DRIVING events; yet, it seems so hard to simply get people together from various groups/boards in Chicagoland. Maybe someday that will change. For a year, I thought it had, with 65 people attending the 2008 MidSummer Chitown Gathering. But then, every year after that, interest waned, including very low attendance at 3 Meet'n'Greets, 04/16/2011, 05/21/2011 and 07/30/2011; the 4th, 10/15/2011, was canceled. So, I'm done setting up gatherings/meet'n'greets. But, perhaps I should try to organize a drive in 2012...or not. I HAVE had time to add to my ROUTE 66 STORY. #20 (The Picture), 10/16/2011: http://whenthegoingisgood.com/2011/10/17/_thats-the-highway_-11/ ...& the entire STORY is here: http://whenthegoingisgood.com/category/route66/ Cort | 38.m.IL | pigValve + paceMaker | 5 Monte Carlos + 1 Caprice Classic * PRE-SURGERY PARTY = ~5:30p-10:30p, Saturday, 10/29/2011 at Beef Villa, 1225 W Spring St, S Elgin IL * "There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife" __ Dire Straits __ 'Walk Of Life' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightfan26917 Posted October 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 * Gluten for punishment? Perhaps, but I am tossing around the idea of organizing a drive sometime next year ... along US Route 20 to Galena IL/Dubuque IA and back, or a different route. Guess we'll see. Meantime, I may not have new writings until after surgery....
