Car Falling apart


Today a piece of the door trip on the passenger side fell off on Interstate 70.

Cadillac in Colorado


This morning I left the hotel room and thought "awww... some bird took a huge crap on my car..." but no, it turned out to be a bird crap shaped moth.

Car Trip coming up!

I leave this Thursday for my trip across the country. I'm mostly prepared for the trip out though there are a few options that haven't been decided yet. We'll have to see how long it actually takes us to drive the routes.

First Place for the '95!


I brought My '95 Eldo to our local CLC club's annual judged show. and won 1st place for my class, admittedly there were only two of us in the class, and I tied for first with the other person (I should have voted for myself...). But still, it's my first ribbon all the years I've been coming to this show.

Stupid car covers


I have a car cover for the 944 that won't stay on the car. I think it's because the tree that used to be next to the car was cut down and now there is no shelter from the wind. I tried tying it but it just twists around the car. maybe I can put some velcro on the bottom of the car to make it stay.

Washed cars

Today I washed three cars at once, and bought a cheap cover to put over the '67 eldo (I already have one for the 944, came with the car...) The covers should keep them pretty clean unless it rains...

A while back our landlord cut down the Pine tree (well the half a pine tree) that was covering our driveway. Now that the source of the sap has been eliminated, I can get to work on scraping the sap off of the 944 and the 67 eldo. It takes forever!

$50 dollar paint job?

It's tempting to try something like this on one of my cars just so it will look nicer for the short-term.

No Updates

The tires are great, I was amazed the first day driving on the how quiet they are!

I'm not sure what my car plan is right now, I'm gearing up for my trip to Savannah. So far, my friend Darla is driving out with me to Savannah, and no one is joining me on the way back. Maybe because I'll be driving through the desert in August.
