The Car Show

O.K. so I'm going to try this again . . .

Janie, Madeline, and I went to London this weekend to visit with her family there. While I was there I decided to take in the car show. Some of Janie's relatives were entering their cars in the show, and they convinced me I should put mine in too. I will say that while Phaedrus is a cool car, there's nothing special about it (it's just factory stock) so I wasn't sure it really belonged in a car show. But after a little waffling, I decided to do it and off we went.

When we got there, it was really cool. The people that put on the show were really nice and Janie's uncles had gotten there early and secured us a spot near a shade tree. We had all of our cars parked together.



That's Gerald's Pontiac alongside Jay's beautiful Mustang and Darrell's Camaro. Visitors to the Hive may recognize the Camaro as the Great Red Shark.

Here's a shot of Phaedrus parked alongside Wes's slick black Pontiac:



We stayed for several hours and had a good time until the sun beat us down. I was pleasantly surprised how much interest my car drew in consideration of all the cool cars that were there. In the end, I was really glad I decided to put my car in.

Today I'm off to the glass shop to get a new windshield for Phaedrus (yeh, it's busted). Looks like my luck with cars hasn't changed.

That's all for now. Adios!

Car Show

Well I just typed in this big post about the car show this weekend and lost the whole stupid thing so now I'm mad. I'll re-post later.
