More pictures...

I really enjoyed getting together with everyone - we should have a meet each quarter I think. Here are some photos I took...

And a few more photos...

Additional photos from the 2008 Winter Meet of the GA Opelers...

I think the dormant Kudzu provided the perfect backdroup for these photos, don't you?

OK, there was some talk of getting a date for the next meet, there was mention of April. Everyone, start checking your calendars and see what dates are good.

Had a good ol time and was very nice metting all of you.

I had to leave early due to an emergency at work, and wouldn't you know it, I'm still at work since yesterday. But as Edwin says, "it is all for my Opel fund".

It was great to be in such good company again. I might not know as much as most of the people there but I keep my ears open.

It was a shame that once again a last minute problem with my GT made it unable to make it. It is better now and should make the next get-together.

6-speed transmission??? That's 2 more gears than I need!

We should make it once a month or so just like the Ford club.
That way if someone does not make it one time, the next meet is always available.

We could get Edwin to check to see what date(s) are available for the bar/grill, in case of inclement weather.

I could easily fit 30 Opels in my back yard, maybe another option??

Thank goodness

It's not me calling for the next meet 3 days after the last.
But Rick did make a good point.
Early spring through late summer is prime car showing.
How about the GA Opelers planning on getting together in the off season and start planning for things like Snellville,Carisle and Charlotte.

I'm attending all three, but, the Charlotte is the Fall one.
