CRUISE NIGHT SEASON IS HERE!

And, with that, another change:
Nanner's has closed, so no cruise nights there on Saturdays.


Also with that ... ROAD CONSTRUCTION.


In the below revised listings, the start dates are included. MOST cruise nights last until the end of September or October.


Remember, I PLAN to attend the following 2011 season cruise nights. I will NOT be able to attend EVERY night or week.
The ones I intend to frequent the most have " *** " in front of them.

So, if you will be at any of them, please let me know...

Some nice cars there. Love the T/A next to your Caprice. Got any pics of the boattail in that last pic?... or that Malibu behind it. Heck I dig the Chevelle up front too.

Indeed!

Not the Malibu, but the boattail is featured a couple posts ago, my August 13 posting, pic is from 07/30/2011.

That great that your able to have so many different cruise spots, come on out to B-town and check a few of ours if you get bored, just kidding. I seen the black 58 Impala & thought I'd show you one of my good friend 58, it's just a cruiser but driven daily in & out of town on long hauls, here's a pic and thanks for sharing the pics of the cruises.

And, thanks ... glad you enjoyed the pics. Sadly, cruise season is just about over 'round these parts .
