Hey Tommy, are you planning on coming, officially, to this year's meet?

Not sure yet. It'll depend on a few things, mainly my Lady.

That's awesome. Where are you from Tommy!

Calgary.

I've spotted my cars in the background of quite a few pictures. it's really weird.

I even saw it in google street view at the dealership before I bought it!

So I've already been to one of these meets, just didn't know it.

I was definitely in the area at that time for both the previous meets, i vaguely remember seeing Zippy on the highway last year around sicamous, and then there's this:

[Oren09]

Hmm. I'll think about it. I need to get my car fixed up a bit, and with a $200 a month car repair budget and two cars, it'll be awhile.
I'll also have friends visiting this summer, so not too sure about scheduling.

Ok im just commenting on how stoked i am for this meet

[Oren09]

Yeah, but you have to have a passport to re-enter the US, and Canada wont let you in without one.

[gottafesty]

I might make it this year. Still a little early for me to commit though.

I'd have to cross the Canadian border, though.
Hmmm

It's been done before.

That is a really beautiful drive! Well worth it even if you don't go to the Hot Springs. Are you going to head home along the TC highway or go Highway 3?

I havent really decided yet. Ive done both. Last time I was at Westiva I went back on the number 3. It was about 40 degress celcius. Rolling the window down was like blowing a hair dryer in your face.

[Oren09]

Only 330 miles from home for me... I could get there and back on a tank of gas! Not quite.. lol.
