I drove my car on its maiden voyage about 30 miles to a huge car show in Simi Valley, CA. First drive on the new motor, went great! Excuse the tilted picture, paint only allows 90 degree rotations, and I even forgot to take pictures, someone snapped a picture and sent it to me, knowing it was my car!

Drove my car Sunday with some friends to historic Glen Haven, MI, a living ghost town within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. Much of the park resides in Leelanau County, a perfect place to go for twisty, hilly, and scenic drives.

Threw in a few more pics for fun.

I thought I parked really carefully far away from any other cars but when I left Home Depot last night I found two paint chips and a ding in the metal! Of course no one was there to apologize for the damage.

I think you better start going to Lowes

Very exciting drive to CVS. They didn't even have the wine gift bag I wanted. Drove around for an hour with the top down on a beautiful day.
Nice day for a drive.

I went out this weekend on another short drive. One to Target and the other to TOGO's for lunch. I did have a great drive through Hidden Valley in Thousand Oaks, CA. What a great day.

..only to the local supermarket but nice to take advantage of the half decent weather.
Parking spaces in the UK have always stayed the same size (i.e. small) so this spot was a lucky find.

Handling was noticeably better on the way home!

Out with some club members for lunch and a joyride.
