It was a beautiful Saturday morning when 34 BMCU members=2C from 2 states=
=2C with 22 cars met for a leisurely drive along the scenic west side of Ut=
ah Lake=2C to the quaint mining town of Eureka.  This was the first outing =
for the 2015 driving season and an excellent turnout of LBCs.  It was fanta=
stic to see such support from the ladies on the tour.  I hope that you will=
 continue to come along.

We took lunch orders with the knowledge that when we arrived at our destina=
tion=2C our food would be ready.  The excellent weather made "tops down" th=
e order of the day.  Along the route=2C before our "drain & gain" stop in S=
aratoga Springs=2C Murphy raised his head with my cell phone ringing.  Jill=
 took the call since I was busy piloting our Alpine.  The wind noise preven=
ted me from hearing exactly what was being said=2C but the gist of the call=
 was that that the cook=2C in Eureka=2C was very sick and would not be work=
ing.  The kind folks at the Fill-R-Up said that they would still try very h=
ard to make everything right.  Thankfully=2C the cruise participants took t=
he news in stride=2C saying=2C "no problem=2C we drive British cars and kno=
w that stuff happens."

Continuing south to Elberta=2C the road was nearly empty with virtually no =
one going either direction.  Our intrepid newsletter editor=2C Rob Foye=2C =
dashed out ahead and set up to take photos of our group as we went by.  (se=
e the Newsletter for pictures)  If anyone has pictures from the event=2C pl=
ease feel free to add them.

When we arrived in Eureka=2C the folk there had realized that the cook had =
already prepared some pulled pork since it takes 12 hours to cook it.  Many=
 of us partook of the pork in very tasty sandwiches.  The hogie sandwiches =
were good=2C also=2C and we sat around two picnic tables they had rustled u=
p for us.  Then several pizza's of various types started arriving!

We were all careful not to block any entrances or exits to the small conven=
ience store=2C but wow=2C did we put on a car show for the locals.  Lots of=
 questions asked=2C along with the usual "I used to have one of those" comm=
ents.  We were even invited back in August for the parade!

After enjoying the hospitality of Eureka and finishing our lunches=2C we di=
vided up into several smaller groups and left town in a couple of direction=
s.  One group headed back east=2C down the hill=2C retracing our route.  Tw=
o other groups headed west out of town and then turned north toward Tooele.=
  The lead group continued onto Tooele while the second group turned east j=
ust before getting to Tooele and went over Five Mile Pass=2C through Fairfi=
eld and Cedar Fort =2C back to Saratoga Springs and SLC.  Those of us who h=
eaded west were paced by a long freight train heading north=2C also.  The e=
ngineer of the train must be a British car fan because as each car went pas=
t the locomotive=2C he would individually give a couple of toots on his air=
 horn for the vehicle.  Way cool!!!

The following were signed in for the Eureka Run.  I apologize in advance fo=
r anyone I missed or misspelling of your names.  I believe there must be so=
me doctors in our group.
