I'm thinking about getting a meet together for April 22nd in Mobile Al.
Not sure what we would do yet, but would like to know what you guys in the area think.

 

Right now, it sound good to me. Even better on Sat. the 21st. I about 30 min from TN, but a nice weekend at the beach sounds good.

 

I'll be in Panama City the week before so if you can change it to the 15th then count me in.

 

Man guys sounds like it would be fun but i dont have any time in the spring and summer, but i find plent of time to lurk around these forums lol

 

15th it is then, but what to do

 

Go to Hooters. Drink lots of beer, eat lots of wings, etc. Then go drive on the beach.

 

hey captain.....i remember like....70% of the people i met in Panama City last spring break were from Kentucky.....

so what week you going to be in Panama City??? Maybe ill see you?

 

I haven't been to Mobile in forever so I dont know what all there is to do down there, but Panama is only about an hour and a half drive if yall would want to meet in Mobile and then drive there.

I'll be in Panama City April 7-14th

 

ill be in PC from the 1st....to the 7th...leave 8th morning.

 

There is an 1/8th mile drag strip in town. Could be interesting

 

HOT IDEA PERFECT FOR PHOTOS
for good photos at sunset is the pier and beach in Fairhope, beach on east side of bay shoot the sun setting or trucks on beach with pier or sunsetting in background

Mobile is not exactly on the beach, but you have gulf shores and dauphin island

you have the battleship ALABAMA, submarine DRUM, the battleship now has a large display of aircraft including a B-52 and a SR-70 spy aircraft.
a large collection of armor
The battleship has a large parking lot and lots of space for photos of various vehicles, the city of mobile photographs all the fire apparatus there, lot new cars photoed with battleship in background

by the way, movie UNDER SEIGE filmed on battleship. Also movie CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND filmed at BROOKLEY

lets see other movies, BACK ROADS, LOVE LIZA, AMERICAN LEATHER, DEATH SHIP, MISSION OF THE SHARK, a lot of "B" movies, lots of commericals.

just some thoughts

 

drag strip in irvington al southwest of city towards Bayou La BATRE

 

Yeah I would be all for a meet in Biloxi. Usually the casions there are very accomidating to such things.

 

I was thinking about meeting at the battleship for a photo opportunity first.
Then again, casinos sound good too only I can't gamble ( under 21)

 

You can't drive on the beach around here bro. They'll throw your **** in jail. I live only 30 minutes from Mobile in the Pensacola area. I can't make it but for those of you that do...welcome to the most beautiful beaches in the world. If you make it to Gulf Shores visit the Pink Pony Pub and the Sea-n-Suds resturant that hangs out over the water. I'm 34 and was practically raised on the beaches of Gulf Shores, AL. The PPP and SnS were around even when I was a kid. They have survived hurricane Fredric in 79' , Ivan in 04', Katrina in 05', and many others along the way. They got staying power and are local landmarks. With the wild and uncontrolled condo development in the area they are about the last two original buildings left on the beach in Gulf Shores and are definately worth a visit. You can't miss em. One is completely pink and the other hangs out over the Gulf of Mexico.
