We
hope everyone had a nice Easter, and don't forget the reason we
celebrate it. We had a beautiful night for our Good Friday Cruise and
148 Cruisers registered to show their beautiful cruisers. Stan was back
cruising tonight after his little stay in the hospital. His Pacer is not
doing very good, it still needs a carburetor. We heard that Pablo is
doing much better, he may even get to come home this weekend.
We hate to report that one of our former staff members, Lisa Lowery
Simonson, Passed away Wednesday at her home. Bill Lowery, her Father,
was also a former staff member and cruiser. Lisa will be sadly missed by
her family and all her friends. Her family has our deepest sympathy.
After 5 O'clock, we got settled in and had our evening meal at the Steak
House with Ralph, Shirley, Stan, Don and Jackie. We talked to Richard
Delgado who drove his 1982 Red Toyota station wagon down from New York
to cruise with us. This is his first time and we hope it won't be the
last. Also Cecilio Rivera from Poinciana brought his 1985 Red C 10 Chevy
Pickup to show how proud he is of it. Felix Santana was out again with
his kit car which was built in Connecticut. This car is a Scorpion. It
was built on a Volkswagen chassis and is powered with a Mazda Rotary
Motor, and a very nice cruiser. We like to see some of these older cars
coming back in. Gerald, (Mr. Pontiac) or as we call him (Mr. Lucky), was
back with us tonight but he had a 1996 Green Ford Ranger to cruise. His
Pontiac is not doing very good.
Allan announced a new bonus for our flag winners. The Portrait Gallery
has graciously given a copy of Nancy Price's book, No One Knows to each
of the Flag Winners as long as they last. We thank them and all our
other sponsors at Old Town.
We were entertained on stage by a new band, Likwid Audio. Mustang Mike
is doing a good job filling in for Mike Singer but we miss you Mike and
hope you will be back soon.
Buzz and Sue has one more week as Cruiser of the Month. Our
Cruise-O-Matic of $75.00 was not taken tonight and our 50/50 of $75.00
went home with Dan of Orlando. We want to thank Old Town and our great
staff for our first cruise of Spring.
See you all next week.
