Every year around the end of August is one of the largest car cruises in our area. This year there was easily over a thousand cars that were there this year. This cruise also offers a burn-out pit for the ones that would like to do burn-outs with their cars. But I don't believe it was too popular this year as we didn't hear or see any burn-outs.
We arrived early to the cruise so that we could get a spot along the road & in the shade. We arrived with the General Lee, our Parnelli Jones Saleen Mustang, & my Dad's Saleen Mustang. The cruise was to begin at 11am, but they open the gates at 6am & there is a line to get into the park at that time. We arrived at 7am & there was still a line, but we managed to find the perfect spot for us. We parked in the shade & right next to the road. We were able to watch the cars drive by. So many beautiful cars.
We did walk around a little bit, but the park is huge & with there being so many cars, we didn't walk around the whole park. Instead, we decided to sit by the road & watch as the cars drove by. We did take a break to go to the food vendors & to the playground (to let the kids loose). The hamburgers they had were huge & excellent. And the other food that we always recommend when there is the corn on the cob. They have a nice selection of food to choose from. Hot dogs for kids, hamburgers, hot sausage sandwiches, french fries, cabbage & noodles, & more.
All in all, it was a wonderful day. The only downside was getting up early in order to get a good spot for three cars. I feel that more & more at the car cruises, it's a competition to get the good spots. I would like to see them keeping the cruises closed until it actually starts. But, it was still a great day even though we were all very tired that evening.
