NAMGBR Cookout 2019
Three British cars from Charlotte, NC traveled through our area on their way to Traverse City, MI for the annual meet of the North American MGB Register. They stopped over in Charleston and we hosted a cookout for them at Kevin's Garage (KARS) in Dunbar. With the 6 people traveling through the area and our members we had 40 people attend this event. It was our monthly Pistons & Pints event. As always, Kevin was a wonderful host. We used the lifts as tables to eat at along wit

2019 Valentines Day Dinner
Our annual Valentines Day Dinner was held on February the 14th at Angela's on the River in beautiful downtown St. Albans. Everyone had a great time and as usual the food was excellent but the service was a little slow. I think that's understandable since they had to serve 33 people all at the same time. Next year I think we will ask them to do a buffet. I've been to functions there when the food was served buffet style and it was excellent. I welcomed everyone to the dinner a

Pistons & Pints at the Fly-In Cafe
Who knew this place existed? Well, apparently Bill Hall did. We had a great time at the Fly-In Cafe, home of the WV Skydivers. The place was packed with customers but our table was ready and waiting, just as promised. We had about 10 folks there, which seems to be about average for this get together. We had 20 at the first one but we've settled into a routine number of 10 people. We had some great food and the folks at the Cafe couldn't have been more gracious. The Cafe start

Barney the MGA Guru
This is an e-mail I received from a very interesting British Car owner. He and his son have been traveling the country in their MGA and have visited the lower 48 states. Check out his e-mail below. I'm also including a link to his website and I have invited him to our Pistons & Pints get together this month. This from Barney: Bill,
I own one 1958 MGA with almost half a million miles on it. I have owned this one since 1977. As of early 2014 it is the only car I own.

Pistons & Pints Lawyer Up
We had a great time at Hill, Peterson, Carper, Bee and Deitzler law firm. We all thank them very much for allowing us to use their building for this month's Pistons & Pints. Hosted by Charles and Cindy Justice, this was an event to be remembered. The Bar-B-Que was great as well as all the other food. Drinks were plentiful, including Falcor wine from law partners Jim Peterson and Mike Bee's vineyard in California, and our own Bob Wright's wine that he makes right here in the h

Pistons & Pints in May
Pistons & Pints was not as well attended as the first one we had. The first one at Fat Patty's had 20 attendees. The next one was a Happy Days Cafe and we had 10 people. We thought that the lack of pints may have kept the attendance down so we added the pints back by having it at Fat Patty's again this month. The attendance was still at 10. Next month will be more popular because we are planning a cookout at St. Albans Roadside Park. It's scheduled for Tuesday June 14th. at t

Pistons & Pints at Fat Paddy's
What a great time everyone had at Fat Paddy's last night. Notice that I spelled it with Ds instead of Ts. Well, it was St. Patrick's Day and we like to do things British. Hence the spelling. We had 20 people at this event. They were: Bill Michael, Robbie Chenoweth, Angie Chenoweth, Jamie Chenoweth, Charles Justice, Cindy Justice, Connie Mason, Mark Mason, Earl Arentz, Richard Stephenson, Larry Stonestreet, Thomas Stratton, Mark White, Connie White, Pam Blackwood, Dan Blackwo
