Sunny and mild this morning, 48 now headed to mid 70s. Wind was brisk yesterday evening.

Not much going on, but we found that the local car group (over in the 'city') was having a "cruise in", so we headed over after church. The cruise in was quite successful, probably 50 cars showed up. James ran well, for the first time out this year. Met a guy there who came up and starting asking about James, he really liked the Atomic Orange paint. Once we started talking I found out he had owned an 05 and an 08. He belongs to a Corvette club in a town about 2 1/2 hours away and about 2 years ago, he bought a 17 that a member of that club traded in... with 3000 miles on it....It has almost 40k now. I asked him if he drove it ib to the cruise in, no I drove my 34 Ford coupe. "Is that black 34 yours? Let's go look at it." Then he tells me how he 'drive it'...Yea, he drives it. He's a crew member on a Bonneville Salt flat team out of that same town where the Corvette club is, and, he drove the 34 to Bonneville 2 years ago and shows me pictures. He also tells me about the 60 Corvette he had when he got drafted in 67 and that his wife drove while he was in Nam. When he got back, he tried to sell it and no one would give him $1500 for it.... so he kept it.... still has it. We kind of hit it off and agreed to try and get together again.

Well, I need to get something done. Have a great day.

yeah....that sounds like a real car guy.... the Bonneville thing would be fun to know about......

the 56 is out of containment and has been liberated and cleaned up... will take it in to the Star City today for fun and some shopping.... weather is cooperating....may hit 70...

good that the car show and cruise night season is kicking off again.... looking forward to it....

Have a day Guru's

It's interesting when you can talk to people and "They get it." They understand what language you are speaking.


Sunny, hot and humid. Upper 80's. Looks like my favorite time of year has come and gone. Back to the daily grind. We have an airshow today at the Homestead Air Reserve Base, They were a full fledged Air Force Base till Hurricane Andrew blew it away. Plans for expansion and upgrades went out the window with all the destruction. Thank you NAACP for warning people away from Florida. Every once and awhile I can agree with you. Don't come to Florida.

A friend of ours that takes photos of the Homestead area took a photo of my front yard one evening. It takes work but pays dividends. I enjoy sitting out front in the evening. (Till the skeeters chase me in.) Right now they're not bad.

Good Evening CGs!

Double birthday day...mom and BIL. Did lunch at the local golf course with mom and over at BIL's now for dinner.

Tommy, the picture looks really good. Great shot for when you put the house up for sale this month. Cars first, goose second.... right?

TB - glad you made a new friend there. If he's interested in joining the page I'll add him manually.

Hope everyone has a great day!

I asked him if he visited any forums...he said no he didm't.

...nice pic Tommy.... very cool....

Hey, it was a nearly perfect day here....weather-wise. Mid 70s and very light breezes. I got both the Caddy and Pickup washed and cleaned inside. Then grilled some chicken for supper.
