NCC1701 - I never saw this post or I would of publicly replied besides the PM/email I sent. I would of made it to the parade if others would commit too. Guess it's too late now.

This weekend I'll be swapping my panels for a Xmas theme as it seems the wife has entered one of my (our) cars in a tiny Xmas parade on base.
joenfaye - Welcome back! You've obviously been under a rock as we've been VERY active all along the Emerald Coast the few months. We've taken turns driving back and forth to try to even it out for some of the people who live a bit away from Gulf Breeze, Navarre, Ft.Walton. Since last April/May we've met as far west as Pensacola and as far east as Panama City and many many places in between.
We've met at quite a few car shows and had some extremely successful gatherings overall. A great group of people!
Next get-together will be in January. Location/date unnamed yet. Sandestin may be a good suggestion or maybe Pensacola? Who knows....
What color/model do you have? One of my students said there was an ORANGE (custom paint?) Smart parked next to my red Smart today. Wasn't yours was it? I haven't seen that car in my area yet, this was the first I've even heard of it. I know people have heard when they park next to my car I stumble out of my cave to greet them (cave = office).
