Good morning, Sunny and 18 right now going up to 28 today, no rain in sight. The Bothwell, show that's put on by the folks from the Old Autos Newspaper was fantastic yesterday. The amount of cars was down due to the threat of thunder storms, but they still had 1700 cars there, and 400 vendors.

Good morning, got up late today, partly cloudy with a slight chance of the wet stuff. 19 going to 28 region.
Dan the Atlantic Nats had over 1900 so this is likely comparable.
Have a great day all you Moparians!

I'd say that there are 2 differences . The first being are we have vendors. But the biggest difference is You Just Can't Beat The Scenery and the Setting of the Atlantic Nationals. It Is Very Beautiful in New Brunswick. Oh Yea, The People that I met Were Very Polite. Which is something that I'm not used too. I had a fantastic time and I'm sure Reg will as well.

Glad you had a fantastic time. I must say our pace is not as hectic as yours.
The Maritimes are different for a few reasons: people are in less of a rush and have more time to talk to people and I dare say the attitude is different too.
I hope Reg likes it down here too.

Good day all, nice warm and sunny day today. Calling for a chance of showers tomorrow. Hopefully we can get past the rain before the weekend, wouldn't want to miss Moparfest.

by Ragtacker Mon Aug 14, 2017 4:51 pm

Good day , not to warm today 20-21 but nice just the same. You guys don`t worry about me liking it out there hells bells a big car show and eastern hospitality whats not to like. We both like the east coast for the same reason, nice people.

Good early morning, just got home, went to see some friends who were down from Drummondville Que. yesterday was a warm and sunny one again, got up to a high of 33+.
Have a nice day.

Good morning. It's 24 now going up to 28 with a humid x of 34. Calling for a small chance of thunder storms this afternoon. Have a good day all.

Good afternoon, just after 1:15 PM here, great party day yesterday(Acadian day) the sun was shining. We have been here since 1630 or so and were deported back in 1755 but a lot of us came back to NB, NS and PEI. If you want to know more about the Acadians just google ''Acadian deportation'' or something to that effect, we have been here for 387+ years and Canada is only 150 years old. Rain last night, 25 now and should reach 28-30, sunny with cloudy periods.
Have a great day.

by **smoken340** Wed Aug 16, 2017 1:14 pm

Good day all, weather is very nice today. Looks like rain for the next 2 days and then back to sun, just in time for Moparfest. Reg, I truly believe that Moparfest is a must for anyone that claims they have mopar in their blood. Should you ever decide to make the trip, let me know and I'll make myself available as your host. We can attend it in my Duster.

by JGL Wed Aug 16, 2017 6:10 pm

Moparfest is on my schedule sometime after next year.

by **smoken340** Thu Aug 17, 2017 4:45 am

Good morning all. Calling for rain later in the day. Got to do a little detailing on the car this morning in preparation for Moparfest. JG, the offer of being a host for Moparfest, stands for you as well.

Hey Mike, really not sure of my departure time, however it will be somewhat early. I have give my dog a long walk to wear her out first. What time do you figure on being at the legion ?

Reg, get me the dates and we will do our best to get together. Also if you decide to do Moparfest in the next couple of years we can do that as well.

Good morning, the temp was down to 9 last night, now already 17 with high clouds blocking the sun every now and then, woke up around 6:30ish and started thinking of my winter project for the car, not a sleep aid.
November is a busy month for birthdays: my wife, my two kids on the same day 5 years apart, Coyote Jack, philcollins, Reg and his granddaughter and a whole bunch of people I don't know.
Have a great day all.

by mikes mopar Thu Aug 17, 2017 8:01 am

Gates open at 8. I am usually in the lineup to enter by then. be at the legion around 830ish. depends on getting into the site.

by **smoken340** Thu Aug 17, 2017 8:56 am

Ok, Mike, I'll try to be in the line for 8 or so.

by 68cudamouse Thu Aug 17, 2017 11:57 am
