more car show photos

Here are some of David's photos from the car show.  Shows where the talent and artistic eye is in the family! (I have to find out what camera he is using)

Thanks, David!  I had a hard time picking out which photos I liked the best.  They capture the excitement of the cars and the surroundings.  Now I wish I were there!

another car show

John joined our nephew, David, and his friend Mike, at a car show in Carlysle PA this weekend.  Looks interesting, but kind of glad I missed it.  David's car club won first place for the best club. There were several private tents, chairs, plenty of drinks and food even a Turkey fried in oil. 

 

This black car was the original used in the Batman movie.

Number 01 was the original Dukes of Hazard car General Lee.

They saw special guests Cindy William from American Graffiti and Laverne and Shirley and John Schneider Bo Duke of Dukes of Hazard. 

Meanwhile, Eric visited me in PBG.  We went to a Green Market, met Sebastian for lunch at the Thai restaurant, went to a movie (Paris at Midnight) and had Mexican food!  If I'd remembered my camera, I would have a good photo of a giant wok of paella at the Green Market.

Going to Ft. Lauderdale tomorrow to get the title to my car squared away.  Jubilee and I will be heading north before the end of the week!

Butler County Fair

The weekend in PA also included a trip to the Butler County Fair ... (guess I'm really missing out on stuff.)

WTF???

Fishing and Hiking

Big enough to eat?

John went fishing and hiking at Moraine State Park over the weekend.  Looks like some very interesting places.  I love the photo of the fish above.

Looks like we have a new bonsai!

And looks like that fish made it to the dinner table!  (But why does he have the maple syrup out?)

Father's Day Ribfest in PGH

I need to get caught up with some photos that John sent from PA.  These are from the Father's Day Ribfest in Pittsburgh:

4th of July Frank Baran Hamburgers

Went to the Baran's for the traditional and famous 4th of July hamburgers that Frank makes.  We did it on July 3rd instead of the 4th, but it still counts.

 Baran paradise.

Cooking

Ready!

a changing of guard

I picked up the new car this morning.  It was sad to let the old one go.  Despite all my complaining about it, it has been a good car for the last 17 years.  Even when I had trouble, there were always angels lurking to help out.  Don't ask about the Michigan dealer plates.  You just never know about these people who pose as "private" owners.  I should get the Florida title in a week.

I accidentally left my garage door opener in the old car.  Bummer.  The private owner/dealer says that he'll mail it to me.  We'll see -- he said a lot of things that were strange.

Anyway, I'm happy with the new little car which looks a lot like the old one - a silver bullet.  I saw the original owner's title - an Arab sounding name, from New York.  Maybe that's the med student.  Going to get some extra keys made before I lose it!
