It's weird.  The only web page so far for 2018 events is of a cruise back in March to the same place - Johnson's BBQ in Plant City.  We evidently like the place.  The weather for the cruise was overcast but no rain.  Really kind of perfect for the convertibles.  We started out with 9 Vettes and 17 people but ended up with 10 Vettes and 19 people.  Not a bad turn out.  We met at Bob Evans near I-75 and Fletcher and when we were all present and accounted for, headed out. 

 

We had a pretty hectic start heading south on I-75 (I-75 is ALWAYS hectic) and exiting on HIighway 60 in Brandon (heavy traffic).  Randy and Nancy joined us after we turned off the interstate so we had 10 Vettes in a row - a beautiful sight.  Then we got onto some "outback" country roads and had a beautiful cruise.  Some of the roads were not much wider than the cars.  Out through cow pasture and farm country - really nice.  Even a lot of canopy roads where we felt like we were driving through tunnels formed by the overhanging trees.

​

Joe E's brother James, and Jerry M's son Tim joined us.  We had a great time together and, of course, the food at Johnson's BBQ was outstanding.  If you weren't with us, you missed a good time.
