A Hershey Surprise (for me)

Post by Sean Butler » Wed Oct 04, 2023 6:39 pm

My buddy Mike and I arrived at Hershey today, mid-day, Wednesday, and didn't walk more than 2 vendors and we had the privilege of running into Rob Heyen. We caught him just as he was leaving for lunch so we got to witness him firing up the Model B and heading off. Video to follow. Great meeting you, Rob!

As long as my camcorder didn't play any tricks on me.

Sean,
Great meeting you. My time at Hershey was limited. Left home (Nebraska) at 11:00 am Monday and arrived at 12:30 pm Tuesday. The main reason was to give a friend who is ill a ride in the only alphabet Ford he had yet to experience. That happened at the Early Ford meeting Wednesday, so I left for home at 6:00 pm. Back home at 8:00 pm Thursday night. That was a hell of a trip….
Hope you had a great time,
Rob

Rob:
We'll have to compare road warrior stories sometime. We (my wife, myself, and our 2 greyhounds) drove from Southern Ca. to Connecticut where we were raised, tag-teaming non-stop, on our yearly cross country trip to see family. Luckily, we do this around "Hershey Time" each year so I get to run to the meet which is about 4-1/2 hours drive from CT.
