Our last stop before leaving Rockport: Charlotte Plummer’s. A dining institution! Thanks Chris for a great overnight tour!
👍
Chris did a great job. Enjoyed the drive, the camaraderie and dinner. Let’s do it again.
On our way to overnight tour to Rockport, and stopped in Goliad for
great lunch at Blue Quail diner.
We had a great time seeing everyone and really appreciate @mozartscoffee for hosting and helping make this a great event.

Was there not a single transaxle car available to exhibit? Great show and the weather cooperated.
