Corvette Funfest 2008

Two weekends-ago, we went down to Effingham for the annual Corvette Funfest, put on by Midamerica Motorworks. Heidi's dad has a Corvette, and has been attending since the festival started in 1994. This was the first time Heidi had ever been, and Matt had sooooo much fun ogling the HOT cars! Part of the sea of Corvettes...there were well over 1,000 Corvettes on display, whose owners had brought them from all over the country! There were old ones... New ones...

Red ones...

and blue ones!

Sorry, I had a Dr. Seuss moment! There were Corvettes of all ages and colors, not to mention in all sorts of condition. There were several with custom paint jobs...this one was our favorite. All of the flames were done by hand with an airbrush. Even the interior and the engine were covered with this amazing artwork.

Needless to say, we have Corvette fever! We had a blast walking through our "field of dreams-" a section of the area where there were lots of used Corvettes for sale...oh, if only! :)
