I want to again send a heartfelt thanks to Jim Beatty. His facilities were great.

I want to thank those that came early to help Ginny and I get everything setup.

I do not thank the sun for abandoning us today. The rain did not dampen spirits.

Whoever paid off the Marine thanks.

Lastly but more importantly I thank Ginny for all her hard work doing this.

Mike

A double helping of thanks here too for all involved and especially Jim, Mike and Ginny.
I'd curse the weather but it doesn't do any good, and besides driving a Cobra in the rain builds character.

After feeling great disapointment due to the weather, we still had a very enjoyable time at this year's party, except for Bob B's snagging my prized present. It was really good to see so many people turn out, even without their Cobras. Heaps of thanks to Jim B, Ginny, the Mikiec and anyone else that helped for all their prep work that made for an excellent gathering.

Hope to see lots of hardy souls out for the New Year's Day run up Yarnell Hill.

I echo the thoughts already posted but need to add my own THANK YOU !!!! Thanks Jim for all you did and the hospitality of opening up your place to us. Thanks Ginny, Thanks Mike for all that you each do all year for us.

The weather could have been better but it is the people and getting together that makes this so much fun. I hope we did add to the next generation of Cobra owners as the Marines tell their buddies of the time they had. I will get a smile each time I see the Marines Choice trophy and remember the day and the folks.

Hey Karl, this light works really good! LOL
Big thanks to Jim for opening up his world for us to use. Very generous.
Great time, great group, great food. Them Chevy guys sure whine a lot. (except Jeff).

Much thanks to Jim, Mike/Ginny and the whole PHX crew for having us up from Tucson. It's always great to see new and old people!
John, I've got to get up sometime soon and see that carbon fiber car!

Please add my thanks to Jim, Mike & Ginny for all of the time and work you all put into making it such a wonderful party. I'd like to send a special THANKS to all of the WIVES whom I observed working continiously in the kitchen. You gals did a tremendous job from the coffee making to the diinner prep and even cleaning up the rooms afterward. Thank you ladies. John

We had a great time. Thank you very much Jim, Mike, Ginny, and everyone else who was involved. Another excellent AZ cobra event!

Bobby B. I've heard that if you turn dat light on, hold it real close to your eyes, you can see some real purdy pitures.

Old Phart · #13 (**permalink**) 12-01-2007, 10:15 PM

I couldn't believe how much food was there. I needed a wheel chair to help me go to my car afterwards. It was great meeting new and old friends, too. Dang, I really wanted that red tool box! To all who drove their Cobras in the rain to get there...........I salute you!

Thanks to all who helped make this party a success. I wish Hershal and Paula could have been there. Hope to see all of you Cobra fans again soon.

Mike Brasfield · #14 (**permalink**) 12-03-2007, 02:14 PM

Thanks to all for your hard work, it was a great event. Lots of good food and better company. I think I hold the record for the number of selections from the gift table, 4.

mikiec · #15 (**permalink**) 12-03-2007, 03:04 PM

It could have been worse....

You could have ended up with the slippers... Last year Karl got the PINK tools.

Who ended up with the extra Tan Jacket? Rickie is looking for it.

Mike

John-Tucson · #17 (**permalink**) 12-03-2007, 05:14 PM

I have it. We thought that it belonged to one of the Tucson guys. I am sorry but I don't know Rickie. What does he drive, how many miles did he put on it this year, and, deos he really need the jacket - it fits me very well. If he needs it right now I'll be gald to drive up there and give it to him.
