Photo-Shoot with "Red"...Chris' Birthday and "The Trip"




My neighbor, friend and car buddy, Tommy, just got Red's new scoop and paint finished...and although she will now have to be shown in the Modified Class...she looks so fine we had to get her out for a few shots!


Soon to be finished out with the rest of the underbody.


Slowly watching Red "becoming" beastly.

So....tomorrow my BABY turns 26. Over a quarter-of-a-century old.

 How can THAT be right?

 He and Tina and I, celebrated this morning.













With a new George Martin prequel to the Game of Thrones series....the joint effort of cash to help him get a hand-held retro gaming system he had been wanting...and Final Fantasy 9 (...a return to childhood moment...)

Also, a Pumpkin Pie- baked from scratch.

Later, enjoyed a drive-by James-ing this afternoon as he made his way to Dan's Music shop to pick up his bright shiny new electric guitar and amp! Working hard and playing even harder.


The FlameKat Series.
 Making plans with him for a future outing soon, and Halloween!


This week's book: The Trip by Debbie Davis.

If you are a Warholic...this is the book for you!

Andy Warhol's Coast to Coast trip from New York to Hollywood in the early 1960's.  So much more than that, as it followed his genesis from "Raggedy" Andy Warhola (his Slovakian family name)...to the Silver-Wigged Pop Icon that returned from that Journey and dubbed himself Andy Warhol.

Well written. Engaging. The Author using receipts and miscellaneous from one of the many cardboard boxes Warhol kept through they years [he called them them "time-capsules"] to re-create his trip and follow his path down Route 66 to LA.

Well worth a look...whether you like Campbell's Soup Can and Brillo Art or not. 

Have a great Weekend! 




















Tucker seems to have got a jump on the weekend.

Looking forward to Our Trip to the Orchard with the Grands, Nicole!
