Five years ago I joined the IML and a month later I made a visit to Milwaukee. I emailed everyone a couple of days before I left and several responded after I had already left town. Fast forward 5 years, hubby's class reunion occurs again and this time I planned ahead, not to mention I had already met one Chicago IML member in person and made a few more friends online. So Robb picked me up in Milwaukee on Sunday, September 29th and off we went. The convenient thing was one of the local car clubs was having a car show. So a quick pit stop in Chicago to trade the Honda (Robby has all these GREAT cars and he picks me up in a beater Honda, he mumbled something about gas mileage) for a `Cuda and we arrived at the car show to be met by the Imperials and Imperialists below! What a Treat!!
The first car
