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 to know more, check out this site on our favorite church or click here to read more about our family...

Funfest 2005 - I know it's been a while since we have added anything to this page, but here are some of the latest pictures from our travels.  This year (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 you want to see for a larger view...    Funfest_1 (VW's), Funfest_2 (more VW's) and Funfest_3 (the Herbies and the  Batmobile).

The Second Annual Concours Classic - This was the second annual invitational show held at the Fine Arts Center in Dunedin Florida on March 1st, 2003.  Herbie was invited as the main attraction.  It was a great show with plenty of great cars...

Don Knotts - We are sorry ole Don is no longer with us, but at least we had the great pleasure of meeting him in Robinsonville, MS. while doing a show with Tim Conway (2002) to get his autograph...

Disney Special Effects - Now here's a cute one.  It's an outtake from a Disney production on special effects which shows Herbie being destroyed by a guy in tights and then coming back as good as new...  In addition, it's in French! (Note:  This is rather large (3.5Meg) video.  Open in a new window...)

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 DVD - Just so everyone knows, Walt Disney has 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.  We don't have any footage here, but you can purchase your own copy over the internet....

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...
