    ....well, I had hoped to make my first Roundup in July along with the Comet since I finished it last fall.

    Cristina and I have been working on wedding plans (say it Dennis!) for the past 2 months and I am going to be awful busy working to make sure it is what we want it to be. So, I have to also cut out some of the fun things that I have wanted to do for the last few years.

    I am planning to make the annual trip to Carlisle again for the All Ford Show in June. I am going to see if there is any way that I can bring the car to that show, but I can't make promises. I have attended that show for the past four years with a buddy and we are trying to convince my Dad to go this year.

    The wedding is in Puerto Rico Dec. 30th. She's been putting up with me for nearly 7 years and I think it is time for me to take the plunge. Heck I won't tell you how long we have been engaged. Let's just say too long to not be married yet.

    Congratulations on the wedding plans Seth, sounds like it will be a real nice one!! Craig is correct though, Christina would love the roundup and probably would want to come back the following year. My wife didn't think she would like it but she fell in love with the people and is actually coming with me this year and the roundup falls on our 1st year anniversary!

    Heck, I can swing the expense for the Roundup. It's the wedding that I am stressing about!

    She might go for that. I usually try and keep car stuff to myself. She is okay
    cruising around for a few hours. I have some shows upcoming. I'll have to see
    how she does with those.

    I'm more concerned about needing to be working with a client that week.

    Might be rude to ask but why are you having the wedding in Puerto Rico?

    NIce place I dated a fine Rican girl for a couple of years and went there for a visit. I was a gringo and the locals let me know it though:rolleyes: . My girlfriend at the time stood up for me. Then I caught her cheating on me..........but hey that's life I guess and I moved on to the next adventure.:)

    Cristina Arocho Hernandez is from Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. That is
    on the west coast, opposite of San Juan. 78F in winter and 82F in
    the summer. Several beautiful beaches are within 10 min.

    She has been here about 14 yrs. and we have been together
    almost 7 years.
