Another great gathering of great people. You all are really special. Lots of food, lots of toys, food donations for the Food Bank and, as usual a hell of a funny Yankee Swap. I look forward to that almost as much as I look forward to seeing all of you again.

Here are some short videos taken at today's AZ Cobras 10th Anniversary Party on Photobucket.com:

I want to thank all the people for making the 10th bash a success and thank you for the food bank items, I am sure they will go a long way to ease some suffering.
Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas and a safe New year.

I had a great time! First trip out of town with the car and no issues, so that's a good thing. It was nice to finally meet some of the Phoenix group. I will have to try to make it up there for future gatherings, Mark

A BIG "THANK YOU" to all of you who spent the time and money to make the party so nice. Mikiec, after the party was over we re-elected you to the Presidency for another lifetime. The first ten ( 10 ) years has been great under your leadership. Thank you.

Mark, If you really want to get out of town some more, try meeting us in Wickenburg on New Years Day for the annual Yarnell run. That is one of the best and koldest runs of the year.
Another great party, thanks to King Mike and Queen Ginny and Princess Diana..

Keep me in the loop about the New Years run,I will try to make it. The bad part for me is my drive up there is longer than a lot the runs you guys go on! Guess I need to work on finding a G/F so I am not alone on the long drives! I had been nervous about taking the car up there, but after today it is no longer a worry. Heck, I almost made the trip on only one tank of gas! Will the pictures from today be posted here at some point?

Hey Gang.

It was great. The 10th. Wow, who would have thought we would still be doing this after 10 years. Looking forward to the next 10.

I want to thank our host Dennis for putting up with us for another year. We had 31 Cobras there with another 10 various vehicles.

If anybody has pics please send them to me and I'll add them to the photo bucket account. I have posted some of them already.

I'll have more to say tomorrow. Right now Ginny needs some TLC.

And all please send good thoughts to Betsy and Paul during this trying time for them.

Mike

We sure glad we joined this club, the people we met are first class, everyone makes you feel at home, even George, so he's Canadian, he doesnt know any better. A big thanks to all of the cooks, awesome food, thanks to all who make this possible.

My Sweetie and I had a great time. Of course, since I'm still Cobra-less, the weather was excellent. My old Copper-***** will be there next year for the Marines, once again, to exercise their excellent judgement, and pick it as their favorite. There's just something about a backwards motor that they like.

Great get-together again, thanks to Mike, Ginny, Diana and everyone who helped make the 10th anniversary a success.

A special thanks to Dennis for donating the space of his office for this excellent party, thank you, thank you, thank you!

And thank you, EVERYONE, for providing all that the delicious food! Couldn't talk much, too busy eating!

ps- I'm glad Mikie finally lost his pants in the last few minutes!

Thanks to all who made it possible. I had a great time, except when all of my tools got stolen.

Mike, Ginny, Diana & Dennis

Thank you all for putting on a great gathering. We had a GREAT time and it was good to put faces with names. BTW, my wife loves her new pink tool kit!

Karl Bebout · #16 (**permalink**) 12-06-2010, 04:21 PM

Dan, Glad your wife likes the pink tool kit. My sweetie "suggested" that I take it several years ago at another Cobra party Yankee Swap and we've taken good care of it ever since. She finally realized that she's not going to be doing any mechanical type work so the tool kit should find a new home.

Gaby and I want to thank everyone for a great time at the anniversary party. It was nice to have you all finally meet Gaby and confirm that I am married to the woman I described to you. Hopefully I will have the Cobra at the next meet and driving it myself after my knee replacement surgery. By the way...I crashed the beauty the other day avoiding another car turning into my lane. Lost control and slid parallel into the curb breaking both wheels, tires and breaking the exhaust off and jamming it under the car. NO BODY DAMAGE!! Car is at Gordons' for parts replacement and checkout. These cars can definitely get out of control. Maybe I need lessons from Gordy.
Thanks again for the fun time and see you all soon. Bill & Gaby
