Event: McDade
Date: July 11 2009
Location: McDade, Texas


It was hot, Scott P and I brought our M35A2s in from Cedar Park and met Danny K and Madison H at the rally point with their M37s already unloaded. Claude V (and friend) joined us on foot (we really need to find a way to get him driving a MV again). We stood around for a while looking at lots of folks on horseback (and two women on longhornback), Beauty Queens from the area, tractor seats and fire trucks. There was some conversation with some Ren-Faire folks out there with their robes and swords (and a watermelon helmet!). The parade was short and sweet through down town, we got lots of waves and some salutes from the crowd, and we won the 1st place trophy for "Best Motorized Group" (I think, Danny has it). There was NO watermelon available for the eating (major bummer), so we formed up and convoyed to Southside BBQ in Elgin for a "meating", as to be expected it was superb. We ate our fill, told lots of stories (some even true I suspect:) and went our seperate ways. Madison had some mech troubles, but apparently nothing too major. I hear we have already been invitied back for next year.
