Default Louisville/corydon gtg @ happys picnic!

Well, another Happys Picnic has come and gone, and we had a BLAST!! The weather was perfect, and everyone was glad it wasn't raining. New Beetles were well represented today, there were 9 New Beetles there!!! That was way up from the last time, when there was only 3 It was so nice to meet Dennis & Pam and Scott & Debbie, very nice folks, VW peeps are the best peeps. Before we parted company, we were already talking about nex years gtg at Happys!! So all that were present, please feel free to post all your pics. I'll start off....

We started off at IHOP in Louisville, We started off with Myself & Jonk, we added to our list with dmbbluebeetle, aka Dennis & Pam.

Happy, our host, has a beautiful white single cab VW truck And here, I'll start listing the rest of the great looking VWs!! We had such a good time. There was also a horse show going on too.

We found a "Herbie" New Beetle, very much like our own "Freaky Beetle". Right beside of it, was a "mini Herbie" I asked the lady if the car had peddles? She responded that there was a motor in it. A 5 hp lawn mower moter! So Cool

Had to look through all the photo's to see what wasn't posted so far.

The official carabugging to the event pics...


Scott's08beetle is 2 cars up in front of BeetleScott

The line up


I liked this one



This Ghia was a VW/Saturn hybrid. It had a Saturn engine, Dash and steering column.

A nice trike...maybe Bugman might want to reconsider selling that back half NB....

How about suicide doors....

Thanks for all the compliments! Thanks to the other three ORG guys who came. We have decided to work harder for next years Happys Picnic, we want to see if we can get quite a few more Orgers to come! Hey we started out with 2 and we have already doubled it! I was very proud to be one of the people who represented the Org, and maybe if we start earlier next year, we can get a whole string of NBs across one line!!!!
