Goodguys Blue Suede Cruise at Norwlk drag strip.
















I didn't get many pictures this year. It was drizzling most of the time and started to rain by mid afternoon. We got to see some qualifying runs and a exhibition run by Don Garlits in a front engine dragster. The two tone Willys is my dads car. Fresh from being painted. Next up will be a pin stripe and then the interior.

HMS Bounty.




I took a trip to Sault St. Marie Mich. last weekend. This just happened to be going through the locks when I got there. Built in 1960 for the movie Mutiny on the Bounty. Check it out at http://www.tallshipbounty.org/
