The '64 Chevy behind me is one my dad bought used - it was a "salesmans special", with no power steering, no power brakes, no A/C, a 283 2bbl and 3 on the tree, my mom couldn't push the clutch pedal down so I got to drive it..........I would have been about 17 or so then........

I'll play:

Me on my first birthday.  1949



Shop picnic 1981, me on the left, and no that wasn't my first beer of the day.



Well, might as well bring you up to date.  Yesterday.  Few more pounds, much less hair and more white in the beard than red.  (sigh!)  ;cw

Thanks Patti.  I had the camera snap about 5 figuring at least one would be ok.  :wh  That one makes it look like I have more hair.  :la

It's hard to read but is  Patti taking a picture of a sign that says Slabacon.  Oh no, I don't like colesla with my bacon.  I don't like coleslaw at all.  :no

Love the Fiesta...I always thought they were cool.  Like them even better than the Mk 1 Golf.
