We're meeting on Telfair St. in Dublin. If you set your GPS to 1200 Telfair St., that will take you approximately to our staging area.
Be there at 9 AM.

I hope you guys have fun.

My car seems to have had the timing go wonky again. Without a garage to work in, it's been too stinking cold to tinker in the driveway. I'm not going to drive it 200 miles each way and through downtown Atlanta the way it's running right now.  :( :o

I don't know which direction you guys come in from, but you may need to approach Dublin from the West side.  If you can hit the 441 Bypass on the north side, then come down to Telfair Street and turn left, or possibly come in and hit I-16, then West to the US 441 exit, turning right which becomes Telfair Street.  I assume you'll be coming in cross-country?  I guess it depends upon when they shut the street down to traffic as to whether you can come in from town. 

Look along the right side of the street and you'll probably see little numbers posted on power poles and little posts like they did last year. 

Everyone be sure to bring your radios and a gallon or two of coolant for the car.  I have several with me.  I'll have to scrounge up an ICM, just in case Pat's Formula pops another as it did last year.  Others might want to bring a spare, too.  There's a couple of gas stations down where Telfair crosses I-16.  Everyone should be sure they are tanked up before the parade, after having traveled so far. 

Ron768 has suggested we all get together afterward for lunch.  If they follow the pattern of past years, the parade will end in the area of Bellvue and Calhoun or S. Elm Street.  I suggest each of you look at Google Maps and pick one of the eating establishments you'd like to go to and provide the address.  We need to get to our eating place quickly to avoid a very long wait.

Last year we continued on Bellvue to Veterans Blvd. and went to Applebees.  Ron says there's Georgia's Number 1 rated pizza restaurant located downtown on the parade route.  Deano's Italian Grille, West Jackson Street. 

Andrew, when I get back home, I'll check to see if I have a harmonic balancer.

Maybe some of these will be there (in spirit, if not physically)?  I hope I don't offend anyone.

In the first picture, only Roger and Brenda, rear center and I at right rear are still with the club.  Don, of course, third from right front is deceased as is family friend Allen Hall in the last picture.  Allen never owned a Fiero, but always attended our AuburnFest and July 4th festivities and exibited his Camaro with our cars.

Yeah, I did one of Don as a leprechaun, but it was too painful to post.  I also have one of Rob F.  I was going to put Scott B. in long green stockings, but my kids were helping.

I don't believe TopNotch smokes, but it was a funny pic.

I know Allen is gone, but didn't know his name.

I have 6 or so more pics, but ruined the one with animated eyeballs.

LOL!  That was a favorite of mine, also.  Very hard to edit on a tablet.  Actually, that and the pic of the white car were the originals.

I had a sudden feeling that, after Saturday, the laugh will be on me.
