Went to visit the Pontiac Family

You beat me to it Matt. :banana:
I'd love to drive to visit them where they are. Such beautiful scenery and the roads look great.
It'll be nicer in another month. :wink:

I'm sure you had a great visit and a nice drive. 16 hours return is about the same as me visiting with Wren. Just long enough to satisfy the urge of Pontiac Bonneville Club commraderie. :beerchug:

What is that fugly red sled O'Neil has taking up good Pontiac driveway space!!!?? :bstooges:
