Special Thoughts: Rustyne Harris had success surgery, so is busy with healing and therapy keep her in your thoughts for a speedy recovery. March Car Cruise to Stillwater Having BBQ at Bad Barts 17 cars made the trip. The cruise started at Pops then on through Arcadia, Luther, Carney, Perkins and finally Stillwater. Thanks to Joe and Eddie s planning, 35 of us enjoyed the cruise. Donna planned a neat scavenger hunt.
As you leave Arcadia, what is the historical building on the north side of the road? It is an old fueling station. What river would we have crossed before entering Perkins? It is the Cimarron River. VW and Connie won best in interior and 3rd place with a score of 992 and Larry and Annette won 1st place with a score of 994 at the Orlando Show. But before the wins, the cleaning and inspections occurred.
