Just a bit of caution here ....if any of you are planning to stay in a motel/hotel in Windsor , be advise that many are booked up right now with refugees ..........this area's punishment for NOT voting Liberal I guess ........and that may go on for some time .

The hotel/motel rooms should be good to go by then. Carl, Chuck,Glenn and I, have built additions on our shops. Carl kind of went overboard with the second storey and bedroom ensuites I heard.

Well , boys and girls we are about 10 days away from the auto show ......and I can't go . I had a nice slip and fall a few days ago and . while nothing is broken , my ribs, leg and arm are in major pain . I takes an old guy like me longer to recover , so it seems . So it's popping pain medication ( which doesn't work ) and staying put for a couple of weeks .
I hope some of you take lots of pics so I can see what I missed and be able to bitch and complain about it ! Kidding ......my dear wife is looking after me .

 If you don't have a pass, it's no sense gettin there too early cuz it doesn't open til noon on Friday.

It was another great show this year, a little too much new stuff for me, but still a great show.  And as usual a good time was had in the basement hanging out with the ELTA brotherhood.  Here are my pics of the Great 8 http://roddersatlas.com/?p=4790

I'll post more pics as I go through them.
