Thinking about our vets today in northern Arizona. Took a 4 hour drive in the "minivan" to the Valle airport (by grand canyon) and air museum. Really a great place to visit. Van ran excellent all day long up and down those steep grades up to 8500 feet.

Just putting on the first miles since the top end rebuild. Walmart was a good ride - a little bit of highway and a little bit of city streets.

Met up for dinner with a good friend of mine at Bob's Big Boy in the Toluca Lake/Burbank area in SoCal last night and it was the first time he'd seen my '68 Corvair so he took some pics then we put the top down and did some cool night driving afterward!

A nice charity Car Show in Berea, Ky. to benefit the Berea Volunteer Fire Department. Everyone who entered received an appreciation trophy and dash plaque.
First time I've taken Scooty Puff out on the Interstate. She was fine, even at 70 on some rolling hills.

Took a ride to Lake Mary in northern Arizona yesterday. The kids just love the 64 Greenbrier and I had to let the girlfriend drive.

Went to the local car show last night. My fiancé drove the sedan and I took the new Corsa. A pretty 65 Monza vert joined us too.

Home Depot!

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.

People are rediculously lazy. That stinks. It makes me mad when people do that. No respect for the property of others.

I work at Lowes and I know when I park 'Way up front' I am actually in the scope of the cameras. Funny, feel safer that way.. :tu:

Awesome! One question - how come they are parked so far apart? Are they jealous of each other :rolling:
