2011 Carlisle Planning Underway

It’s been a long, hard winter. So, it’s been good to start thinking about the show season ahead. This week I put together the updates to the site regarding planning for getting the feature cars together at the 2011 Carlisle Ford Nationals to be held in Carlisle, PA from...

Feature Mustang Registry Updates Underway

My last round of web site updates included changes to the 1992 and 1993 Feature Mustang registry forms. This changed it from simply emailing a submission to me to including  the submissions in a database. With the old email-based submission, I processed everything locally and uploaded a new web page...

I had a really busy summer due to some personal commitments.  I skipped the fall marathon that I have run for a couple years now because I didn’t have the time required to train. With things slowing down and the weather changing I am back to regular running. I...

Carlisle 2010 Pictures Posted

Tonight I went through all of my photos and picked out some to share. You can find them in my PicasaWeb Carlisle 2010 photo album. I never want to have a single copy of any computer file and this especially true for my photos. I lost pictures once and...

Carlisle 2010 Trip Report

This was the most stormy Carlisle All-Ford Nationals in my fours years of attendance. But, we didn’t let that get us down. We still had a great time. This year I tried something different with my use of twitter to post pictures and short updates as the show went...
