Re: crusin the coast
Burn outs will get ya burnt. Hit all the cruisin points. Leave early for good parking spots. Stay in the are where you like. Gulfport Boloxi area on the strip if your a late night er and don't mind heavy traffic and like nite life. Bay St. Louis and ocean springs for more laid back areas. Bring a gps for alternate routes to get around. Hit the swap meet early cuz once it gone, well it's gone. Be careful of drinking and driving they will haul you in. Book your room now. They fill up fast and get higher the closer it is to the cruisin the coast date.
Expect minor scrapes. Get them every year. Some are bigger than others like last year some lady hit my truck....parked, and I wasn't even near it thank god the other cruisers stopped her and get her plate number and called the cops cuz she was just going to drive off like nothing happened. Caused $2175 in damage. Yep she was drinking and didn't have insurance either. Does that stop me. No. Already booked a room and paid my dues.
Most of all have fun.
