Milford, MI ( Bakers ) Lotus Day (?) Sunday May 24

How many are interested ?? One of the largest cruises around ( sometimes up to 1000 cars )..... I was thinking maybe we can get a gaggle of Lotus cars there this coming Sunday. Weather is looking great...sunny 75. Restaurant and DQ is across the street. Fun time. Bakers of Milford about three miles north of I-96 on Milford Rd. Let me know if you think you'll be there, and I'll block off a section for us !

Usually "starts" at 3 pm......but you "usually" don't get a space to park if you get there after 1. But I'll get there at 11 or so, and hold as many spaces as I get responses for.

A word of warning: 99.9% of the cars there are so clean you can eat off the paint jobs.....so make sure you're shined up !!

Ah, would otherwise love to, but we're headed out of town for the holiday weekend. Perhaps next time.

How late into the evenings do these last? I have plans in Howell, but may drop by late afternoon / early evening.

Thanks,
Jeff
