Bob said it well!
-=Jeff=-, there were 12 Corvettes in all; 3 C7s and the rest C4 ZR-1s. There were some friends of Keith's there too, and he told me some of the Corvette clubs in the area picked up on the happening and broadcast the event as well. Best part was getting to see so many of the ol FBI gang; some I hadn't seen since last fall at Marc's BBQ/party. The catered BBQ was nice, the music was also nice, and did I mention the tasting room? VERY nice! And, the parking lot was roped off just for the cars. Lots of people looking at the cars; not all were Corvette owners. Lots of questions and some surprise to discover the ZR-1s and their history. Thanks Keith! It was a very, very nice afternoon.

And... look what followed me home - one of Keith's Black Dogs! Well, after the tour and learning a bit about the distilling process...one HAS to take home a souvenir, right?
Actually, it is one of his special creations; a Lavender Vodka. The shape of the bottle is like a flask instead of a (cylindrical) bottle. And, if I understood Keith correctly, he saw "Rooster Cogborn" (played by John Wayne in "True Grit") drinking from a flask-like bottle and went looking for one like it. He found one, made in Italy. And, as it happens, it was their bottle that was used in the movie! So, just a bit of trivia (did I get that right, Keith??) Anyway... it was a really fun gathering of eagles!
