The link below goes to my view of the 2005 JunkYardDogJunkYardDog Tour. With hindsight I should have included more photos of the JunkYardDogJunkYardDog puppies. They are all there in 1 photo and the 3 that allowed me to share transport have been included especially, I thank them especially.
I had planned to caption at least some of the photos but time has prevented this from happening.

If it works here is the link http://www.jacomms.com/tonyw/editjyd/

All comments welcome
Tony

Hey Tony,

Thanks a million for posting all the pictures. Brings back lots of good memories. Not the least of which is the nice weather. Made those cold beverages during the evening 'bs' sessions all the better. We sure did have a great time. Thanks again for reminding me by posting the pictures!

Bill.

You are right with the weather, it is starting to warm up here now still wearing 1 sweater but have taken 1 off for the season. By december I will need the ice bucket refilled twice a day at least, we generally get 35 to 40 degree centigrade (100 to 110 in your scale) december to febuary. Thats when the ice cream sits on ice except when its going down my throat.
As for the tour again you are right, I thoroughly enjoyed the week I had on your turf (US) and when the $$$ permit will come back.
Tony

It was great to meet you and visit while you were here for the JunkYardDogJunkYardDog Tour, Tony. You're certainly welcome back on this turf any time.

Are you planning on attending the Natl Meet in CO next July???

Bill.

I would certainly like to but doubt the nickels will stack high enough by then. It will probably be several years of stacking to get back. As you know nickels are round as well therefore they roll faster than they stack.
If I could keep children out of my pocket it would be much easier but being an old softy that is not easy either.

Thanks a lot for the pics.

It took a while to view all of the pics but it was worth it.

Would like to see some names attached to the pics of people....I would like to put some faces with the names.

Also liked to see the scenic views of the NW....looks a lot different than Fl.

Thanks again...

Yes.....a ton of nice photos. That show by the lake was a good choice. Very pretty indeed.

The plan was to put a caption on all the pics but time has gone at double pace since I got back. I should do it before I forget who they were and where they were taken.

The lake area was very nice area and a lot of nice cars on display. The people that travelled in them were nice too. All in all the week was worth the time and money for me to attend the tour.

Ya, we all had a great time, and we are very happy that you were able to make it from down under Tony. Also, besides a lot of nice cars at Lost Creek Lake (as shown in the photos) there were a lot of very cool looking "sweeties" running around at the car show too! ;\) \:D
