SSE was Mike G'*....go back through Bandit'* pics - I added some captions.
Too tired to post my own pics...but here'* the summary of the day:
The Americans landed around 1:30pm...the Toronto Area group followed shortly. 12 Members... 17 people total.... 10 cars total: 8 Bonnies, 1 Park Ave Ultra, and 1 Aurora. We met in a mall parking lot... some old guy in a Corolla stopped and talked with Gonneville for about 30 mins. Also, three other people stopped to gawk at the display.
Members present: Jim W & Angie, BrianJ & Lisa, MikeG & Chris, RawFusion, SingsCountry, Bandit, Peterg, Drifter, Tamara, Gonneville & Brother Mopar, Repins, MayMyBonnieLiveForever & Mike.
Brianj was the Host with the Most Preparedness... he greated everyone with gifts (CD'* and Nipple Clips...okay, not Nipple Clips...but it was a clip magnet that Gonneville promptly clip on his brother'* nipple....brotherly love was prominent throughout the day.)
Off to the Go-Kart place.... that was a blast! PeterG claims he beat everyone, however he didn't mention that he lost control after I gently nudged him and he rammed into the tires. Gonneville and his Brother Mopar complained that they couldn't pass me because I kept too tight in the corners...ya... no kidding...that'* why I did it. My kart was N/A while others were Supercharged....I had to drive defensively.
Then we took a run down Lundy'* Lane and Clifton Hill, then by the falls and onto Brian and Lisa'* house. The lift bridge was lifting to let through a freightliner, so we broke out the munchies and pops and made it a photo op. Of course, Tamara and Drifter got yelled at by the BridgeMaster for walking out on a restricted area.
THANK YOU to everyone who came out. It was great to add more faces to the names, and I look forward to seein y'all again. Keep in mind, if you ever want to come State-side for a meet, you're welcome to stay at my house.

BrianJ...man, you did real good!! I have to hand it to you and Lisa (Lisa, Happy Birthday! sorry we couldnt stay for cake...I'm at work posting this), for organizing and following through with a fantastic get-together. It surely says something when two people can go out of their way to open their homes (and their wallets) to plan, carry-thru, host and feed everyone. I was impressed.
Thank you very much....your efforts are truely appreciated by all in attendance yesterday.
I now have every Collective Soul disc. You've completed my collection!
Angela and I had a great time, the cruze from my place with Frank, Mike, Peter, Murdock and Tamara, to pics at the mall, audio test, gawkin at Raws' BIG rims (anyone post any reflection pics yet?). Couldnt get over how SLOW my go-kart was.... but I did get a prize out of it
I was pretty sure I was gonna win Best In Show, but congrats to Brian for his mint PA. I hope you had fun drivin the Aurora man Word is...its as quick as an SSEi (but I'm sure he was patronizing me)
Thanks again all, great seeing you. MikeG you had my votes for Best In Show...I bet you were close
Until the next time!
I'll post my pics later on today

Well everyone ONBF has come and gone! I'm totally thrilled by the turn out we had and I'd like to thank everyone for coming! We had people as far as 8 hrs away (gonneville and mopar bro)! I'll summarize the EVENTS of the day since Tracy has done a great job so far for the "feel" of the meet.
First order of business was meet and greet at the mall which we did, and as usual us Canadians were way behind the Americans for promptness, but I kept the Americans busy with their nipple clips! (aka fringe magnet clips).
Afterwards our Poker Run began. At every stop we did along the way the driver of each car drew a card from a deck. At the end of our day (5 stops later) we checked our hands to see who had the best hand. Winner was Maymybonnieliveforever'* son Michael (won a handheld poker game).
First fun thing of the day was Go-Karts. Well get a bunch of Bonnie nuts together at a go-kart track and watch what can happen! MikeG got his helmut on backwards, PeterG drove like a maniac, JimW had a "slow" kart (that was his excuse for being passed by everyone), and Brian.........well Brian(gonneville) humped the monkey!
Next our cruise through the tourist zone where a cop in a Dodge Magnum saw Mopar bro in Brian'* car so he decided to join our convoy! We turned heads at quite a few places, including when we drove past another car meet (with lots of classics).
Next stop was the lift bridge. As a few memeber tested the "DO NOT PASS THIS LINE" theory, the security cameras started stalking them and then the "voice from above" (Bridgemaster) quickly scolded them to retreat!
Finally at my place the street filled with Bonnies and PA'* and Aurora'* and turned a few heads in the neighborhood. Steaks and corn went on and everyone chilled and chatted. Final event was everyone judged all the cars and we came up with a"best in show award". Gonneville took top spot and won himself the computer speakers. Rawfusion and MikeG took runner'* up prizes. Jim W won for best Aurora in show.........wait a minute he was the ONLY Aurora in the show?????......Everyone drooled over his exhaust note!
All the end of the day the Canadians bailed and my American friends stayed to chat and we watched the bug lite do its fireworks with some biga$$ moths and crane flys.
I'd like to thank everyone for making it out and hope this can be the beginning of an annual event and of greater things to come! You are all welcome in my home ANYTIME!
Now my pics!
