Friday was another cold winter day here in central Florida, at least for us Floridians. We saw a few short sleeved shirts and even some shorts, must have been tourists. We had a small bit of rain early in the day but it was fairly dry for our cruise, of course we cruise in any weather, thanks to Old-Town, Allan and our dedicated staff and the many visitors that come from all over to enjoy our hobby and check out all our town has to offer. You will find many friendly people here to chat with. We chose our T-Bird to cruise tonight and were the first to arrive, followed by Stan with his 77 Pacer.

Doug came by with his big 2007 Chevy Truck. Barry had his 2009 PT Cruiser out tonight. Tony (the Loser) with his 1994 Corvette and one George tonight who had the 86 Olds. The other George is under the weather, we hope to see him next week. Doug K stopped by to say hi to us early birds but did not cruise.

Of course Gary and Dave, two of our cruisers who choose to work, bring their cruisers every week. Dave has the 1983 Mercury and Gary the 2007 HHR. We thank them both for everything they do for the cruise.

Bob B was back with his 2005 SSR, he has been up north enjoying the 26 inches or more of snow that they had in Maryland. Jay was on block 3 with his 2002 yellow Corvette, Mike and Seth was behind with his 1992 Sonoma truck. George Pennachi had his 2005 Yukon. Karen came in a little later with her 2007 Toyota. She has Leopards on the sides and hood on this cruiser. She really likes to make her cruisers stand out to catch your eyes.

Our friend, (Fred from Michigan) was back in town and visiting his many friends he has made here. Our weather is a lot better than Michigan weather right now. Juan and Leidis from Puerto Rico (two of our friends) were also visiting tonight. We are always glad to see them when they get in town.
Tim Andrews had his 1987 Olds cruising tonight. He had some new tail ligh

ts that needed to be installed. George and some other cruisers put them in for him. Cruisers are good to help one another and in this hobby that we have, it is good they do.

Back on trophy row we saw Vinny with his 2005 Dakota, Freddyson with his 2003 Xtreme S 10 and Nancy who had the 1991 Mustang. We talked to Doug Gonzalez who had his 1990 Nissan. He resides in Orlando near the airport. Another cruiser with a truck was Alex Engberg from Orlando had the 2002 Ford Ranger. Of course we can't get them all but all of them are important to our cruise.

Our cruiser of the month for January is Toby Buck who has a 2004 PT Cruiser. He chose two other PT Cruisers to park with him tonight. Ralph with his 2001 PT and Bert and Laverne with the 2007 PT. Mitchell was with them tonight.

Close Quarters was the band entertaining on stage tonight. We thank our dedicated staff for another safe cruise for our 60 registered cruisers that showed up tonight.

Our Cruise-O-Matic was $575.00 but no takers tonight. The 50/50 was $12.00 and went home with our friend Barry who is also a cruiser.

See you all Next Week!
