The Volunteer Chapter Spring meet was great

Kent Martinson - Deceased 1947 - 2019

December 7, 1947 - February 19, 2019
I just got home from a great day at the Volunteer Chapter's spring meet. There were about fifteen members and guests in attendance and five or six pro cars. last night we started things off with supper at the Caney Fork Fish Camp. Today, we started the day with a good breakfast at Cracker Barrel and then toured the Nashville city cemetary. From there we went down town to a model train expo. After that we went to Ambulance and Hearse Sales and looked at all of their new and used stock. From there, we went to the Gupton Mortuary College for a tour. Then it was back to the motel to decide on a place for supper. I left, at this point, as I have been having back and knee problems, and was too worn out to continue the fun. A great time was had by all. It's always fun to get together with the fine folks of the PCS.
Oh.....by the way, Leann, when are you going to take the twins out for show and tell? :wowguy: :thumb:
 
Glad you guys had a great time. I was hoping to be able to make it, but me and a friend took off on a road trip this morning. I was hoping to bring home a new coach, and make it down to the meet this afternoon. But, things don't always go as planned. I was talking to the guy on the phone yesterday, and we kinda made a deel, but he wouldn't confurm a price. He just kept saying come down here tomorrow and we'll work something out. Well, we get there about 8 30 this morning, the car didn't want to star, he said lets put the battery on charge and lets go get some breakfast. So, we did, and after about a hour and a half of talking, we heded back. The car started, and I could see $ signs in his eyes, but at the same time I could tell he kinda hated to part with it. We spent forever listening to his storys about the good old days and how he remembered the car when it was new. Time flew by, and after spending the better part of the day listening to his great storys and trying to meet somewhere in the middle on a price, for now, the car is still sitting in his garage. So, I met a great guy today, who is full of great storys and great memorys, and got to see and ride in a beautiful old pro car, that one way or another will be comming home with me one day. But, I still can't deside if it was worth missing a great day hanging out with great PCS friends or not.

:applause:

We want to know what Jeremy did to get an escort. We know what you did! Flashing twins on the road does that!

:angel:
 
I want to know why the cars are driving on the wrong side of the highway??? :angel:
 
It's about time we got to see. Hell the Florida Chapter has pictures almost posted before we even leave our meets. Looks great and hope to attend one day.

So that's what a good bumper on a 73 looks like. Have to remember that!!
 
Yeah, but I have 2 part time jobs, one with pay, one without - :halo:

You just have to decide what is more important. Taking care of the PCS and showing all the members how fun your meet is, or work hard make money to pay bills. It is unAmerican to work hard and pay your bills LeeAnn.

Your choice sweetums! Now if you had a man to take care of you....:agree:
