Nick Idoni's House of Ribs - Photos by Scott Clapper - Last weekend's (November 1) lunch cruise to Nick Idoni's House of Ribs was great.  We met at the Grottos' parking lot in South Bethany.  It was a cold cloudy day but Bill and Dianne came roaring into the parking lot in true Beachcomber fashion - with the top down!  El Presidente led the caravan down Coastal Highway to Ocean City.

Crab Feast - Photos by Scott Clapper - The threat of weather kept some of the Corvettes in the garage.  Bill Vernon led the caravan to a yummy crab feast in Easton at the Talbot Ag Center on September 27.  The crabs were delicious!
Station 7 Lunch Cruise - Photos by Scott Clapper - 8 Corvettes (and 1 HHR) met at Payless in Millsboro. Joe & Karen Schluck's yellow '04 led the caravan for a lunch cruise to the metropolis of Pittsville. We dined at Station 7 (http://station7restaurant.com/). An old fire hall that has been converted into a restaurant. Dianne Shaw picked the lunch spot. GREAT CHOICE! The menu is varied and all of us said good things about the food and service. Now, for the big news... Joe's '04 had four (4) bugs splatted on his front bumper (I counted them) on the cruise to Pittsville. That's the dirtiest I have ever seen his car.

LUNCH CRUISE - August 31- Photo Show by Scott Clapper - On August 31, the Beachcombers met at Payless in Millsboro for a lunch cruise. We had 14 Corvettes and 1 HHR. Bill, please rent a bobcat and get the stone moved from in front of your garage so you can get your Corvette out. El Presidente led the caravan to west Ocean City. Jim Willis had picked the Captain's Galley II as the restaurant de cruise. The food was great. The conversation was great. The weather was great.

CORVETTES AT CARLISLE - Photos by Scott Clapper - This was our first year at Carlisle.  You can't imagine anything like it.  The whole Carlisle fairgrounds covered in Corvettes and Corvette parts.  If you are looking for a part for your car, I suggest making a sign with the needed part on it.  All you have to do is walk around until somebody says they have what you are looking for.  One more tip... if you go to next year's Carlisle, halve the clothes and double the money you take with you!!

bullet American Legion Car Show - Photos by Scott Clapper  [click for photos]

Eight cars participated in the American Legion Car Show today (7/19/08). Beachcombers had cars from 1975 - 2008 represented. It was a hot day, but a covered pavilion provided shade and a breeze cooled us as much as possible. A hot breakfast buffet got the Beachcombers engines started.

Congratulations to Tom & Ruthi Macknight! Their 1976 coupe garnered another trophy. Walking away with a trophy was also Jim Willis for his "arrest-me-red" 1975 convertible.

I believe that the previous car show winners should have to buy lunch at the next lunch cruise. Do I hear a motion? All in favor!!!

Kent Island Lunch with the DC/Baltimore Cobra Club  -  April 12, 2008

Some before and after pictures from this past Saturday's Kent Island lunch with the DC/Baltimore Cobra club. The weather was "iffy" when we left Rehoboth. We made it to Harris Crab House without incident. During our lunch, it rained, to say the least. Note the Cobras that do not HAVE ANY TOP whatsoever. After taking off their shoes and pushing their cars out of the flood, they then had to towell of the INSIDE of their cars.

Lunch was great. We made new friends who just might be crazier about their cars than we are.

Much thanks to Bill Vernon for organizing the event.

Scott Clapper
