September 16 1908

Hi All...

Was on my way to Jim G's shop this morning to pick up one of the larger surprises for Auburn.

Had the XM Radio on in the truck listening to the 50's on 5. They had a what happened on this date in 1908 segment. The answer was William C. Durant formed General Motors. So Billy even made the air waves today!

Thought you might find that interesting..

See Y'all in Auburn....Frank ---

Sounds like a good sign hearing from old Billy just days before the Auburn meet

Re: September 16 1908

Yeah
Remember Canada last year with the newspaper story on Billy that was unplanned and we had nothing to do with at the same time of our meet. Maybe he is watching over things!
