I have admittedly been busy but I guess that’s not an excuse for not posting up road trip updates.

So Tuesday after a great Labour Day weekend Craig and I headed out to Nashville.

Four states in a day ehhh ?

Video.

I will post the pics of our day on here.

As much as will upload.

And a few comments.

Last few photos for tonight

We ended up in Clarksville, Tennessee after over 12 hours on the road.

And I had the pleasure of doing a little interview with Phil Cullen from Pueblo, Colorado. As he got out of his 1941 Chevy truck with Corvette power after a long day driving down to Nashville for a show.

Watch and enjoy the video.

A few cars I bought along with Woody and a cast Eagle flagpole topper to close out Tuesday.

What a day.

What a trip so far.

Thanks to Craig for all the driving and putting up with me ��

Life is Good.

America is Amazing.

Thank you all who cross my path and make my days even better.

Scenic taken in for its MOT

In and out.

Passed.

Wet and rainy today.

Shops with Sally who took a week off work, hopefully find some time to work on my current garden project build.

Load of preparation there.

Collected the Air Nailer today.

Tested it this afternoon.

What an awesome bit of kit.

Looking forward to using it.

A nice project, I'm excited to see how it continues, glad you're doing well.

Afternoon Harald

Thank you.

Yes its a nice project.

Typically I have made it end different from my plan.





So you thought America was done?

So did I ( well, at least all the editing and uploading)

But you don’t get off that lightly.

A few more to create and upload.


This one includes lunch at Ethyls and a cuddle from our Queen - Kelly.

Also heat treatment of blades out in front of the workshop with Dennis and Adam.

All too soon it was time for @CraigRK to head back to Mud Island.


Lucky man, he had won a 1973 VW Beetle in an online competition.


Also had cats, dog, kids and a wife to return to.


On the way to the airport, we stopped for the customary breakfast at Pete’s and then got distracted by a local car show.


Multiple T Shirts and photos, chats and drooling later we headed out to St Louis Airport to drop Craig off.


I think both Dennis and I were not overly happy with losing part of the team but life goes
