The Triumph Driver's show, traditionally held Arbor Day weekend in Nebraska City, and scheduled as an April event has been changed. It is now scheduled June 6th at the Ameristar Cassino in Council Bluffs, IA. from noon to 4:00 P.M. This is a week before the Heartland Regional (registration form on page 3) in St Joseph MO. We hope to have a presence at both shows.

Some weeks are just better than others. We may recall them as the week we married, or , for some, divorced, had our children, bought our first house, obtained our first LBC, built our first engine, or won the lottery. The week of March 13-20 was such a week. We began with breakfast at Mahoney on the 13th, followed by set up of the booth for the swap meet and dinner at Mazatlan. After partying discreetly, and then heading home for 2-4 hours of much needed sleep. We arrived at the Fairgrounds at 2:30 AM to prepare for our 3-7 shift of directing traffic.

At 7:00 AM, after our duties were finished we manned our booth, directly opposite the Cornhusker Corvette Club. Both clubs will deny, as a matter of honor, any cooperation which is rumored to have occurred. The teapot was plugged in, the cookies laid out and the parts placed on display.

We saw a number of old friends, met a number of new friends and served more tea, 3 pots worth, by 2 pots than ever before.

March 20 was the annual Might As Well Have a Party Party with a decidedly St. Patricks Theme. (We Scots and Swedes demand equal time, party and place to be named later!) Sports cars were observed and discussed, gluttony was practiced, standards were sung and designated drivers were pleading with the rest to quit and go home already! Thanks again, Nancy and Jerry, for hosting the event. Overall it was a very successful end to a very busy FWAHC week.

It is our practice on each Friday night, when Martha is in town instead of on the road, to buy a something good to drink, some fruit and some good bread and then drive out into the country to find a quiet hill from which to watch he sunset and the moon rise. We discuss the past week, decompress, renew our friendship and begin to become human once again. On good days we also view geese, ducks, the occasional eagle and deer. Our picnic finished we
