This morning was absolutely AWESOME. To see all those kids get off the bus and pick out what car they wanted to ride in.....oh, man...how cool.
I thought this was going to be just a regular old cruise up around some twisties throught the hill country. Not only that, but I thought it was going to be fbodies ONLY. Well...a few days before, I get an email that it's for kids w/ cancer. I just can't begin to tell ya'll ...
We started in San Marcos and got a full police escort straight up to the capitol. Yes...that means that we had about 20 bike officers, 10 PD cars, trucks, SUV's, etc all block off intersections, on ramps, THE ENTIRE HIGHWAY, etc so we could make our way up there. It was sooooo cool. This will be my first of MANY years to come.
The coolest parts of this deal?
1. The kids. The looks on their faces. The smiles. Oh man...priceless...
2. The cars. Not just fbodies. We had a Lambo Gallardo, a couple Ferrari's, at least 7 Vipers, a Ford GT, Bentley, bunches of Z06's, Fbodies, Stangs, Porches, Jags, etc, etc....Just look at the pix!!!!!
3. At the very end...at the capitol building...I was in my SS behind this blue Viper.....Dad is standing there with mom, their two boys (about 5 and 7) and a younger daughter. Dad asks, "Do you like that Viper, Tom?"
Tom, the 5 year old, points to my car and says, "I like the SS, daddy."
Just tugged at my heart strings...the entire morning!
GOD, how I loved it!!!
Enjoy the pix, ya'll!
