Let's figure out with Andy so we can get the BMT and BAT in harmony and we can attend both.

I wanted to see if any of you are interested in going on a brewery tour after Cars & Coffee in June. They are at 11:00 am and cost $5.

How did everyone fare through the weather last night?

Cars in the garage so OK there
Skylights taken out by baseball sized hail- time for a new roof and skylights.

Got pounded in Bedford. At least golfball sized hail, my car was outside and did not fair well. Windows are fine but dents all over the body; this is just a pic of the hood, but it is like this all around



I swear we were watching a tornado 'trying' to form just half a mile away. The clouds kept going in circles.

Thank god for the garage, but all my neighbors without garages moved them to the parking garage just across the street. I never see it open for non employees (the gate is always closed) but oddly enough it was open last night. I guess the owner left it open for people. The wind was worse than the hail here, numerous fences were in the alley ways and streets. Thankfully my house was safe and sound.

Was dangerous around the lake. Had to dodge a sign that blew into the highway & then had to fight the wind as we crossed the bridge.

Tonight was really nice, though. I hate having that fucking speed governor, though. :devilgrin

The last 2 weeks have been at the Palladium Ballroom on Lamar St., just blocks from downtown Dallas. It's actually been a really nice location, surprisingly.
However, there is no meet this week, & there have been rumors that the meet is moving again, so it "won't" be returning the following Monday. I haven't seen it confirmed yet, though.


Just randomly adding in that I had a pretty good day despite work. Startin' to really dig (*cliche* ) this girl at work & her wicked sense of humor. She also likes the TL.

Shaun, the next meet is June 13th at the Ballroom in case you're interested.

After tonight, definitely considering pre-cat deletes now. E, I wanna see how your Lotus runs from a roll.
