Hi Troy...

I'd love to attend this car-show, but my scheduled plans for 2012's Father's Day, along with Dad's current medical-issues, will not allow that destination to be a part thereof.
Hopefully, and perhaps, another year?

You have fun attending, though...(With accompaning: Plenty of picture-taking for AGO forum-sharing?!?! Thanks.)
