Stitch and I are sharing cooking duties and it has all been edible. So far.<br /><br />John Gray, We are the walking wounded. Thanks!<br /><br />Diane, Behind the license plate was fairly common. Maybe someone will put me and whatever combination on YouTube someday, but it's not likely to be me posting it.<br /><br />Robyn, Everything is green and lush at last! Doing my best to keep it together physically. Mentallyis always a challenge. Spit-free is always a good thing (as Martha might say).

The cars are like a walk down memory lane. One was similar to my first car and another was like the first one I drove at 130mph.<br /><br />Elephant's Child, Once I rolled over in my sleep and elbowed the Cooker's eye turning it black. "How did you get that black eye?" "My husband did it." That was hard to live down.<br /><br />PP, everything grows in Florida. It always seemed so bright and colorful all year.<br /><br />Katy Anders, It was always fun back in the day when new model cars would come out. The gas station attendants (they filled your tank, checked your oil and tires, AND washed your windshield!) were always challenged to find the filler hole. Corvairs were also unstable with all their weight in the rear. Ralph Nader's first(?)book, Unsafe at Any Speed was based on that.<br /><br />ABFTS, Sometimes guys like us just LOOK guilty and that is enough for some people.<br /><br />Debra, there were quite a few silly and annoying places to fill your tank. It's all pretty straight forward now. Except for electric cars.Jonohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170214396483091419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-7257751266630225682015-06-07T18:53:48.955-07:002015-06-07T18:53:48.955-07:00Embiggen.

Had no idea about the beneath the taillight filler cap. How cool.<br /><br />And as things would have it, my wife is currently in a frankenboot and using crutches. It's hilarious walking around and seeing a few people give me a questioning glance, trying to size me up and see if *I* was the one who caused her injury.

He said there used to be a lot of cars like that, and then took me out to his garage where he has an old Mustang that has a filler door dead center between the tail lights and a Nova that has its filler door behind the rear license plate. <br /><br />I assume that they stopped doing that after the experiences with the Pintos and Corvairs, where rear impacts were making cars explode.<br /><br />Anyway, I learned something about old cars because of your post. <br /><br />I hope everybody gets their bandages off soon!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323871207793126503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-24899125669003067092015-06-07T15:22:24.910-07:002015-06-07T15:22:24.910-07:00I know we have orange blossoms here in Florida, bu...I know we have orange blossoms here in Florida, but apple blossoms are a whole lot prettier, in my opinion.<br /><br />I love car shows, too.<br /><br />And speedy healing to Cooker and Stitch!Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-8918345446424384552015-06-07T13:31:53.547-07:002015-06-07T13:31:53.547-07:00Old cars have sooooooo much more charm.
