"I
will build a motor car for the great multitude. It will be large enough for the
family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed
of the best materials, by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs
that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man
making a good salary will be unable to own -- and enjoy with his family the blessings
of hours of pleasure in God's great open spaces." Henry
Ford, 1907 |

COBB / WAXAHACHIE TOUR - Saturday, June 6th & Sunday, June 7th.
This is another overnighter - we will be staying at the Comfort Inn in Red Oak.
Their phone number is 972-617-7797 and you can call to see if they still have
any available rooms. Saturday lunch will be at the Rockett Cafe in Rockett, then
a trip to Hi-View Farms and then onto Red Oak. Dinner will be on your own and
there will be a list of restaurants for you to choose from. Sunday morning will
be the backroads trip on to Waxahachie to park the cars on the square. ONE
IMPORTANT QUESTION for those who are planning to go. I heard earlier that there
may not be any shuttle service to the homes. I will confirm this one way or another
tomorrow (Friday, May 29th). IF there is no service, I'm thinking that a few at
a time could load up in the cars and go see the houses. . . right now we have
9 T's planning to make the trip. IF this would keep you from going on the tour,
please call me - Kathy, 214-801-5288 asap. THERE
IS NO REGULAR MEETING AT THE CHURCH ON SUNDAY, JUNE 7TH. The
June meeting will be held in conjunction with Men's Night Out and "Lunch
Out" on JUNE 13TH - 11:00 AM in Campbell, Texas. The lunch part of the
day is as follows: The Murphy's are providing the hamburgers, paper plates, mustard,
mayo and relish. The club members going to the Murphy's should provide dessert,relish
tray,dips and chips, beans or anything else that sound delicious. We will try
to eat about 11:00 or around that time, also please bring lawn chairs. Please
notify Suzy Page about what you would like to bring. I
would like to add that SPRING TOUR that combined the Lone Star T's with the Cowtown
T's was a huge success. From everything that I've heard and the pictures that
I've seen, everyone had a great time, with maybe the exception of the "little"
rain storm after 2nd break on the way to lunch! Sam Parish, 2009 President of
the Cowtown T's is encouraging everyone to check out the photos all ready uploaded
to their website at: www.cowtownt.org |
