Missed the "Lights of Lansdale" Parking lot this year. When I was in the
NW of Arkansas we (BSCNWA) were always invited to the parade. Spent
about 6 hrs (from 4 - 10) one AM putting the finishing touches on the
suspension on Sat AM just to make the parade. We had Little Miss AR
sitting on the folded top just 'cuz we had a cool looking car.

What a blast.
