Smart Car Tour of Florida Part 1 - April 19th

[NCC1701]

I just reserved at the Ramada. A mini vacation for me and a three day trip, the longest I've made since I took delivery last July. I should arrive at Ramada late Saturday afternoon.

Bill,
Vickie and I are bushed! A long but great day on the tour!
I would be remiss if I didn't congratulate you and thank you for your leadership in putting this together.
I have ridden in motorcycle groups for many years and know how difficult it is to put these kind of road tours together and even more difficult to pull them off. The route was terrific, the directions were clear and right on, the roads were great and the stops were well planned.

I sort of think of it as bringing miles of smiles not only to the participants but to the motorists and people of Central Florida.

Job well done! Thanks for a great day!

Sounds like you guys had a blast! Wish I could of made it down your way but I can only commit to one event down your way every few months and the next one will be at Old Town so at least I'll get to see you guys there.

Victor - we're getting together here next weekend if you want to drive over to Ft.Walton.

Had a great time with y'all from Sun Coast Smarts! I only regret I didn't associate more faces with SCOA handles. Glad I did catch a few though. It was great to meet the folks I did get to speak with! Thanks to Billl for putting it all together. Peak car count was 19, right? Pretty cool! Thanks for having a Panhandler along for the ride.

Compressed copies of my pics are at http://www2.marlowe.net/smart/compressed.zip

The zip file is close to 20 meg, so be patient when you grab it. My uplink bandwidth here at the house isn't all that great.

The individual uncompressed photos are available by name in the same folder.
