We just got home. This little meet was un-planned, we just detoured through Hillsboro on the way back from our weekend at Mt. Hood (Myself, Lisa, and Dex, no kids), and Jordan came by to drop off Pdad's slicks for Matt, which he picked up from my place in Corvallis last week.

Here's my group shot:

The cars:

(The burb, the 89LE, VBCSpangler's Camaro, Lisa's Buick "The Schooner" and the Rubber Chicken)


Matt's work table:
