Our first Friday night cruise of November. We wonder where the year has gone. Old Town has already started trimming for the Christmas Season. However the weather was beautiful as we arrived at our regular time. Buzz and Sue were busy visiting their friends in the different shops. Bill Hunter, our proud Marine friend, with his beautifully decorated truck was the next to arrive. Stan came by with his blue Pacer and it sure is good to see that Pacer back after a couple of weeks off.

Bob Butler with his 2005 SSR brought his friend Larry out to cruise tonight. Larry is recuperating from an operation and does not feel up to bringing his cruiser out. Thanks Bob. Troy Berridge with his 2002 Mustang, then Scary Larry (alias Roger Knight) from St. Cloud with his 1986 red Mustang convertible, and as usual we had a full line of cruisers by 5 o'clock. when Joe, Lee and Dave left us on the brick streets.

After our evening meal at the Steakhouse we went out to socialize with our many cruiser friends and to see if we had any first timers. The streets really seemed quiet after last week's Halloween Party. By around 7 o'clock all the spaces on the brick street were taken and we had quite a few back on trophy row. Our Chrysler Club were in their favorite spots back of block one.

Dave was on block 4 with his HHR followed by Jon and Angie with their Pontiac Formula. Jon was on vacation this week so Angie took the day off so they could cruise together. Tom who had his 1994 Ford truck did a great job decorating his truck for Halloween last week, this week had a different theme but he always has it looking great.

A beautiful 1985 red Chevy Silverado was owned by Cecil Rivera from Poinciana. He has only been cruising 5 months. Felix Santana with his 1978 red Scorpion has been cruising for 6 years. Dave and Jane Daffron came out with their 1980 Pontiac. It is good to see them again. We do like to see these older cars coming back. Ike and Nancy were with us tonight with their Corvette, as was Al with his beautiful 1999 Corvette. Ed (the Loser), was out after a long absence chatting with Tony, George and George and the rest of his friends. Karen Price has a beautiful 2007 Toyota FJ truck. She calls it her Cheta truck. It is beautifully decorated with a Cheetah on the sides. Great job Karen.

We have a new cruiser of the month, Pablo and Nilda gets the honor and favorite parking spot for November. We congratulate you. The band on stage was Shakedown. Allan mention that in 2 weeks we would try a new cruise route. We hope it works well. Thanks to Old-Town and our staff for letting us show our 184 cruisers tonight. Our 50/50 of $59.00 went to ticket holder 31000 who bought 5 tickets. No takers on the Cruise-O-Matic.
