Well, just a short note to say the Texas meet on Saturday went quite well. Joe Strickland, Doug Norton, Mark Evans, Brooks Harkey and I met at Round Roc, near Austin. Four nicer, better exemplifiers of what this great site and mailing list is all about would be hard to find. They had to put up with me but nothing in this life comes for free, does it. We saw Mark's lovely 1963 at his house but, other than that, we were all without Imperials. While that might seem odd it just shows the value of these gatherings because when we discussed trying to have another Texas meet, we all promised to ourselves that we'd try to get our cars running and to bring them next year. Because three of the five hailed from the Dallas area, it seems only right to hold the meet there next time. We thought it might be a good idea to try to get together at the same time as the Arlington swap meet, which is usually in September.I'm hoping that those of us who have to come long distances might try to stay at the same hotel near the swap meet. Then those closer could meet us there for breakfast before heading out to the show, which we just know will be full of hard to find yet inexpensive vital parts for our Imperials, of course. And then a nice meal in the evening before heading our separate ways.Just some thoughts. I've had the good fortune to meet quite a few members of the IML. Very, very few have felt so embittered that they resigned their membership, which speaks well enough of their characters that you might want to join us next year. I shall be, as usual, a shrinking violet and sit at the back and not say much.
