The weather cleared on Saturday and we had great weather for the day. Sunday rained and changed our plans, but still a fantastic event!
Here are some of the pics that I took.
Outside the Columbus Inn

My car did not make it to the event 
. But the event made it to my car 
I needed at least another 12 to 15 hours to have my car capable of driving to the event. It certainly would not have been done, just drivable enough to drive 2 miles down the road to the park and back.
One thing that did turn out great is that we had enough time for most of the group to drive over to my place and check out my car!
Looking forward to driving it to next year's event

Great photos Doug. 
Looks like it was a fun event.
Thanks for the new desktop background.
Who else had a camera? More, more, more.

Doug.
Can't wait to see your car. You did a CW job. Everything you can't see is finished and perfect. You did good 
How about a motor shot from under the car??
Sorry I could not attend, too many things happening locally with family. Maybe next year.

Great time had by all.
Thanks to Sean, Doug, Mark, and Garold! (and Dave Darling for a tough quiz - didn't win this year 
)
Lynne and I had great time, lots of good folks 
. Beautiful country, nice roads, fall colors, great event!
Hope to see everyone again next year.
Thanks to all the vendors that supported the event.

John made it to the event fine. (I have his last name as Unthank) As far as I know, he only had a small issue with a relay on the relay board. He had spare relays with him, so not a big deal.
John has a great 914. He won the Best Four award and he won the Longest Distance Traveled award -1750 miles one way!

I am sure sorry that I missed it. My lecture and observing sessions were clouded out so I could have made it. I just wish I could predict the future!
Looks like everyone had a great time (smiles all over the place).
What time is it next year? We WILL be there.

Just wanted to say thanks for a great event! This was my first 914 event and my Dad and I had a great time! There were a lot of great cars there, hopefully I can get my car to that type of condition some day.
Sean, Doug, Mark, and Garold did a great job hosting the event! Everybody there made a new guy like me feel welcome. Thanks!
Looking forward to next years event, and hopefully I will be able to attend the entire event!
Thanks again!

Longest distance traveled and best 4 was John Upthink. John and his wife were not able to join us for dinner but for the record he drove ove 1700 miles one way 
Kudos to him and Kelly who drove from Minnesota.

Linda and I had a great time. Saturday was perfect! Here is a different view you might appreciate. There were 10 914's It was difficult to get a full shot on the road with all of us. We were in the 10th car. Cahrles was behind us. I guess that made him the nine eleventh.

Hey Ed certainly seems to get around. Did he drive his turbo out? Oh that's right I forget you can't turbo a 914, and it's not feasible to add cis AND a turbo.....
It looks like it was a blast!
