    I was unfamiliar with it as well. Thanks for the definition though.

    The Gathering follows my personal philosophy about the classic car hobby. "It's all about the people. The cars are just an excuse to get together". You don't have to have a finished show car to be a part of the gathering of people with a common interest. It is a fun event to go to a place where there are activities and side trips to places you normally would not see. The area around Somerset, Ky is beautiful with Lake Cumberland, a 55,000 acre man made lake, Cumberland Falls, the largest waterfall in the South, rolling hills with curvy roads to cruise, and if you stay a little longer, the largest car cruise in Kentucky. But the best part is the people and the friendships developed over the years. It's like a big family reunion. That's why people drive or fly in to it each year. Great vacation, as Mike said. Join us.

    You always have Knotts Berry Farm All Ford meet and there are enough people in Cali and close with Mavs and Comets that a meet could be arranged , just somebody has to take the bull by the horns and go for it.

    I've had up to 30 people at my house for a cookout.
    we invited the Sheriff Deputies on patrol in the area that day also.
    we had people driving by just stop to look at the cars.
    at the time only 4 of us there had been to a..Roundup/Gathering.
