Well I forgot all about a room until brother Mike mentioned it, I got what I believe was the last room at the Comfort Inn. VB told me which hotel was the host. Got my belts in now it time to load things up.

We had a great time at the 28th Annual Thomaston Main Street Cruise yesterday (Sunday).
Lots of cars backed in on both sides of the street. Something like 500+ cars.
Music playing all day, food court, silent auction, craft show etc. When they
played the National Anthem, you could hear a pin drop. Very nice! A great day!
Hey, I even made the morning paper. 🙂 Oh, I spent some time chatting with Dick Doyle,
aka The Blown Hearse. He will be at the Dover event at the end of the month.

Did they have that at the same time as the Bethlehem County Fair…?

If they did… it seems like bad planning.

I was just up that way two weeks ago.

Yes Maso, It was on Sunday, the same weekend as the Bethlehem Country Fair. This was the
28th annual Thomaston Main Street Cruise. There’s no way that the fair interfered or hindered the success of the Main Street event!

I talked to a lady friend of mine who was at the Car Show in Lake George Village,
this past weekend. Not as much as usual ‘hot rods’ and ‘show cars’ showed up,
compared to last year; however the place seemed packed with spectators!
I was at the ‘Village’,Monday, and spoke to a L.G. grounds keeper. He told me
the ‘Village’ gave out more than 1000 parking ticket violations!!! I know for
‘fact’ there strict , with ‘parking’ laws!!!……Pete.

Hey everyone, new to the forum here! This might be a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone in the area (Wingdale/Dover) might be interested in a project I’m doing on the Dover Drag Strip. I grew up in the area and graduated from Dover a few years back, and I’ve been fascinated by the history of the strip ever since.

 

I’m trying to make a project that honors the spirt of the drag strip, and I plan to use both old archive photos from the strip, and present-day portraits and pictures of the area. If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, or you’d like to chat about your memories at the strip and have a portrait or two taken, please let me know.. Thanks all.

[patinaParticipant]

Kevin are you going to go to the race in 2 weeks? I would be willing to talk with you as I’m sure a lot of old racers would be. That would be the place to start.

[masoParticipant]

Kevin really came to the right place for that…!

[kmanParticipant]

Kevin…. you just hit the jackpot …

[KevinParticipant]

Thank you all for the info! I didn’t know that there was an upcoming race, so I’ll definitely make my way there and say hello. In the meantime if anyone wants to lend a bit of their time to talk about their time at the strip and sit for a photo, let me know. I’ll buy ya a drink!

[babycakesParticipant]

WELL ??? Are ya’s ‘ready for some “DOVER” rock and roll’ ????? Bring it on!!!!…..Pete.
