After yelling at my GPS for attempting to take me the long way to Dallas I pulled in last night only 15 miles from my destination. I was very happy to be off the road by that time since I beat my own drive time record.
Nineteen days on the road I settled for a breakfast at IHOP while I waited for my room to be ready, compliments of Jacquie and Adam Hair. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for all you have done! After checking in to my room, I went back out to detail the pony. Starting with what I thought was the worst turned out to be the easiest to clean. Thanks to Croftgate's detailing in California those rims were practically just wipe-able!
I met with Corey White and others of Five Star Ford. They did a great job getting my car cleaned up and ready to go. It was time to get the show on the road. Off to Hobby Lobby where I expected to meet a few other mustangs and stampede back to the dealership. Lo and behold at least 8 to 10 Saleens all ready to go. The drive was a cross between Chicago and LA . Go fast, then BRAKE! (SSBC Brakes that is). Suddenly we were back at the dealership where even more Saleens and other beautiful Mustangs were waiting. There, Jacquie organized a bake sale and some items to be raffled off along with some char-broiled hotdogs and hamburgers provided by Five Star Ford. It was almost like being at home.
Once again I met some really terrific people! It was a wonderful time and The Breast Cancer Research Foundation wins again!

Tomorrow will be Houston TX at the City Center. I am looking forward to meeting some more great people for a great cause!
