Looking For That Something Special - My
wife and I have been Christians most of our lives and with all those things
we face during our lives (like with Stephen) we are just glad we
have a Lord and Saviour who is always there for us. If you would like

Jingle Bugs Rock 2009! - Well, we once again had a great time at
Jingle Bugs Rock 2009 which was held to help raise toys for the US Marine Corps
Toys-for-Tots Christmas program. It was held at our local weekly
cruise location, Old Town in Kissimmee Florida. Cars were
decorated for the holidays and people came just to have fun. The
cruise at the end of the day was fantastic.

Funfest 2005 - In June 2005 we
decided to go to Effingham, IL to Mid America Motorworks Funfest 2005
which turned out to be one of the best shows we've ever attended (thanks
Mid America). Not only was Joaquin Garay III (Paco) from Herbie Goes Bananas
there with his beautiful family, but they also had three original Herbies
from his early years along with over a dozen replicas and two from his
latest movie Herbie Fully Loaded. In addition, it just so happened
that Mid America arranged to have the new Batmobile drop by for it's first
unofficial showing in the US. And guess what, Stephen and His Herbie
were allowed to cruise with the original Herbies and the Batmobile around
the facility.... What a blast! Well, here are most of the 700+
pictures Stephen took while there (make sure you check out Herbies new
bright red trailer). They are in easy to view thumbnails that make
it easy (and a lot quicker) to download. Just click on the picture

Sound Clips - This page includes a sound
clip from Herbie's latest show It's only a 7 minute clip from a show
which spans over 35 minutes, but it gives you an idea of the type of fun
that Herbie and his friends Bo, Daisy and Duke have at the shows they
attend...

The Love Bug on

re-released The Love Bug on DVD with many hours of extra footage and
interviews from some of our favorite stars. Of course, Stephen and
His Car Herbie was filmed on February 26, 2002 and can be found on Disk 2.

Cruisin The Coast
- In October (2003), we took a little ride up to
Mississippi to show Herbie during the Annual Cruisin the Coast festivities
which is a all week car cruise with around 6000 cars and which covers
approx. 30 miles of Hwy 90 right along the beach between Ocean Springs and
Bay St. Louis. We had a ball and ole Herb was written up in 5 papers
and also made a brief TV appearance. You'll never guess what the
newscaster said about him...
