With the time change tonight it is time to get all the Comets ready for the 8th Gathering at Pigeon Forge May 31, June 1 & 2 at the Mt Breeze Motel 2926 Parkway in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. Sorry to say we lost one of our Comet Guys last October (Ben Adcox) from Pickens, SC. His wife Deborah said that she and her son will try to come and bring their red 65 Caliente. Hope to see them and everyone also.

Pop I hate you're not going to be there, but I understand the family reunion thing. Since I've lost my dad and papaw it seems my family has gotten a little closer together as far as going to reunions. He careful friend and we will enjoy some fruit juice for you,Pugs.

Sorry to hear you wont make it either, hope all is well, we'll be missing some cornerstones of the event. I don't like the sound of your last line, do you know something we don't JL?

Thanks for setting that straight, we really enjoy this event and all of you and would miss it tremendously. I think we would go back every year at the same time just waiting for anyone else to do the same thing even if the Gathering ceased to be formal. Glad to hear all is well with you, well miss ya but forward to seeing you next year.

Well we arrived at the hotel and to my surprise there was a really nice red 63 sports hardtop custom sitting on a trailer out front. I noticed it had a Florida plate and the pull truck had a Seminole tag on the front. After a while the owner came out and he is from Tallahassee and someone I have known for probably 20 years, he is good friends with a former co-worker at the Ford store. I had no idea he had a Comet and he didn't know I had mine. Strangely enough Kim had seen if in town a week or so ago and forgot to tell me about it. Small world. I sent radical a picture so I'm hoping he can start adding them if he has time.

This promises to be another great Gathering.
