It turned out to be a great day! We caught a break from the storms and thought we were the only ones to show up, 2 owners in one VX. Slowly but surely they all trickled in Joe and Jenn in their Astral, Ashish and Colleen in their Foxfire, Kasia in her Civic :p (What's with all the Proton owners getting rid of the rides?), and our friends from south of the border MMOROLEON with his brother's Ebony VX! His Ironman is down in Mexico and I think him and Pepino should get a Mexico VXer group going! It was very cool seeing enthusiastic new owners and can't wait for the next meet!

Our photos didn't turn out as well as we would have liked. Cece lent her camera to a friend and there is a smudge on the lens. So it looks foggy in all the photos. But I'll post them up any way.

First it was just me and Cece, until Joe showed up with Jenn! :yesy:

A third one made it by surprise! Ashish and Colleen in the Foxfire! Fresh from a wine tasting... I didn't even know Chicago had a Napa Valley...

I sooooo thought it was just going to be me and Gill! :o What a surprise turn out! It was so awesome to meet new members and share the enthusiasm. It was really nice to have Kasia (yal) show up and be able to pout in the corner and cry because we can't have ours there. The meet was truly missing a lifted Proton... it needed some color to brighten up that gloomy day! :bwgy: I was so glad I was able to get off of work and make the meet. It was cool meeting every one of you!

P.S. Gill, I know what I want for Christmas... Hint: It's hand assembled in Japan, made from ceramic molds, and doesn't need a roof rack cause I have one sitting in the garage! :yesy:
