Crap, I have to change my plans and can't make the meet. Someone else will have to bring the cooler of Coors Light and soda. Sorry guys, I really wanted to come hang out. Just got my car waxed and everything.

Ok was this some sort of sick joke? I drove around that park for an hour trying to find anything close enough to resembling a meet. I saw one parking lot with a black ML and a white E class with a few girls standing around, but I wasn't sure if that was it or not, and I sure as hell wasn't going to look like a douche bag asking complete strangers if this was where complete strangers fromthe internet meet.

I saw shades of a dateline sting going down. hahaha

On a brighter note, I stopped by the Menlo Park mall and bought some socks, and hit up Roy Rogers on the turnpike on my way back to Hoboken.

You idiot, that is my white E. Why the hell didn't you stop? And for the record, that black ML was parked next to a pair of SLK55s, a CLK55, an orange Vette, and some goofy blue C230. Your eyesight is failing.

For the love of Pete. I saw an orange something on my 68th drive by, but had no idea what it was.

Ok next time there has to be a landmark or something so us noobs can figure it out. Do you know how much of a pain in the *** it is to navigate an Excursion in that area?

I always end up missing these Jersey meets!

How about we set up another one next month. Palisades mall parking lot. Get together, talk some cars, and then go to Outback for that monstrous onion thing they have.

DItto. I saw a white E with aftermarket wheels pulling in as I left the park around 2pm after some fruitless drivearounds. Took my son into the mall instead for some Mother's Day shopping (probably a first - someone from Delaware going to NJ for shopping). At least 295 was empty for the quick drive home.

The first meet we had at the park I also drove around for a long time. It is quite a large park. We were here:

They aren't aftermarket, they are real AMG wheels. And I think I did see you pulling out.

Normally we only do 2 meets per year, but I'll go to palisades for an interim meet only because Nello is such a spaz.

I think I may post my cell number next time, as it is clear that many NY/NJ/PA people are a bit slow on the draw.
