I just registered. I'm not sure if I am camping again this year or not. I just hope that I can get the car running for more than a few minutes at a time by then.

I'd bring my trailer to help you get there if it weren't so far! Keep us posted on your progress. I registered last week, and plan to camp at least one night. Hope the weather cooperates.

I guess I'll register this week, won't be camping, I'm bring my better haft this time so parentally I want to stay in a hotel downtown?
She has stayed there before and says I need to see the place ( she wouldn't go with a drive by viewing) its McMenamins Kennedy School Hotel, I'm sure it will be interesting but not as cheap as camping, it'll eat into my swap meet money.
Looking forward to the trip.

Kennedy School is a great choice and not terribly far from the field. They are a brew pub, hotel, movie theater, and they have a salt water soaking soaking pool. Yeah, just a couple steps up from camping. [;)] I'm looking forward to seeing everyone.

Sorry, Don! Apparently I only go once a decade, last time was 2003 (pre-wedge, my TR4A took people's choice). Probably felt I couldn't repeat...

I always tend to register at the last minute to just get my car's picture in the book. Won't be camping this year, done with going without a shower for a long weekend. Getting too old for that.[:p]

I'm a maybe like always. My job forces regular schedule changes. But if I don't get called away I plan to be there. I may have choice of cars this year. But I'll probably bring the DHC.

That's always a tough weekend to get free, so I've never been to that one. I usually do the ATDI in mid-August, but this year its going to be in Penticton B.C., which is a bit farther than I want to go. A great area, but hard to get there and will most likely be scorching hot. Maybe this year it's time to switch.

I was going to the ATDI in Penticton but it changed it's usual date to be on the same day as the Filberg show at Comox which I like to support as it's same club (different chapter). Besides you get a good bottle of wine when you leave.[:p]
The reason for the date change was all the other weekends at Penticton were filled with other activities.
So many shows so little time.[:(]

I paid my registration by PayPal almost 3 weeks ago and haven't received any confirmation from ABFM that I am registered. They haven't posted my car photo either. Seems like Jim's photo was posted fairly quickly. In previous years they listed all the registered folks on the web site by vehicle class. Has anyone else registered and gotten any sort of email confirmation?

I got an email confirming my registration and my picture showed up on the web site almost instantly. I'd check and make sure that it went through Pay Pal. I used Pay Pal too and it worked fine for me.

PayPal charged it to my credit card. I sent the picture again thinking that it might not have gone through, and asked for an email confirmation of my registration several days ago. No photo posted, and no response yet. I guess I'll try contacting our PTOA ABFM rep.

It takes a long time for the electrons to move down from Alaska.[:o)]
