But that night we had a progressive dinner with Luther's Cruisers Car Club! It was supposed to rain that night, too, but it never did and we had a great time. If you have a small club and want to do this, it is tons of fun. You will need a couple who will do appetizers, one couple for the salad, one for the main course and one for dessert. Start with the appetizer, meet at their home. Have your snacks, some great talking, and start the convoy to the next home for salad. More great talking, a cold drink, and cruise off for the main course. Caravan style, of course! More talking, more fun, and off for dessert!

Everyone was arriving and we parked the cars in a row. We had to combine appetizers and salad both at Don and Margaret's home. Their gracious friend came over to help, a big thank you to her. She stayed behind and dutifully cleaned up after we left. The salads were terrific! Cheese and crackers, condiments, a good start to the evening. Thanks, Don and Margaret!


Paul and Rosie came with a new car that Paul had just finished. A 1955 Chevy Sedan. Love the color! The interior, as you can see, looks like new. Paul is very fussy and wants everything to look like new. He had success with this one! Watch for an upcoming tour of Paul's garage.

Call to food! Come on guys, time to eat! Come on, Jim and Beth, time to eat! Everyone stop looking at the cars and head over to the gazebo. Complete with a kitchen in the back. Good eats, Margaret!

We file in, take a plate and dig in! Where is the cola, Becky? Oh, there they are! Thanks! Terry, get in here and get some before I eat it all! Oh, he is already here!


Good times, great food, great talk. Tell us some stories, Stuart. Hey, Bob, when are we going flying again in the power parachute? I hear Don wants to go! Brad & Carol, tell us about getting stuck in the sand at Lake Michigan! Suzanne, get Stuart some coffee! Jane wants to try some of that jalapeno cheese!

Peek through the bushes. What is going on at this house, the neighbors were asking. This is all they could see. Sorry you couldn't come. We missed you!



Arriving at Steve and Renee's house, we took a minute to look at Bob's new 2004 Corvette. Sharp car, Bob. Look at the shine in that fender. Maybe I can post one of these shots on Skywatch Friday!

Steve is cooking up some burgers and dogs. I wonder if he learned that skill cooking for Brown's Burgers and Dogs at Christ Lutheran Church. I bet he did! They were great, Steve! Thanks for the eats and that cold soda! Terrific!

I sure don't know what got into Renee and Rosey, but it looks like they were having fun! Thanks, Renee. But we have to get to Bob and Vickies for dessert. Our thanks to Bob and Vicky, it was a bit late and I never got any good pictures at your house! I guess it was too dark. But we had great dessert! Loved that Chocolate frosted eclair cake! Mmmmmmmm!
