She said "What's this".

I looked at it and said "Oh, that's my concealed carry card".

She threw that card back at me like it was hot, and asked for other ID.

Go figure.

Now her fingerprints are on the card. If it is used in a crime it can be traced back to her :lol:

I worked with a guy that had darn close to the same car. It may be the same car. It sure looks like it but his had Cragar S/S rims on it.

It was a fast car too. It had a big block in it. He drove it daily and I never once saw a speck of dirt or dust on it. He was meticulous with keeping it clean and rarely got on the throttle. He babied that car and it showed. It was a beauty.

What a funny reaction. It used to bother me when people reacted negatively to something that I was enthusiastic about. Anymore though, it just makes me chuckle and feel a little bit sorry for them. It can't be fun to carry around all of those unconcealed negative assumptions and preconceived ideas.

I wrote that story about the CC on the 17th. It started me wondering about renewal. The thing was due on the 18th. I got it done.

It's dark bronze and cream. It was painted bronze and cream when he go it. We repainted the truck and the cream thing was popular on new trucks at the time, so he left it.

It went to the Chicago area.

Family is important. Glad you got to do the mini reunion.

A ham dog??

That looks like a great place Tim, and to have family there tops it off.

Re: My Facetruck thread.
 
It was a great visit. I was there 2 1/2 days and only left the place once to take a ride in a big circle around the area. Helped me appreciate it more.

I wish we could have brought my mom up. These are my two eastern sisters and I have two western sisters, ID and NM. I hope to get together with those two before too terribly long.

Thanks Tim ,,I will never get to see what Maine really looks like in person out in the country so these photos are great to see for me.. you see I used to live down river from Portland Oregon about 50 miles and they say that the two places Portland Maine are very similar .. the under brush the trees and coast lines ..
Glad you got to visit with siblings ,, too.

Re: My Facetruck thread.
 
I hope I get to see Portland, OR. A big difference in the land in Maine compared to here is it was glaciated. The rolling hills are deposits from the glacier and then there are mountains spotting the landscape. Here it's pretty much all continuous ridges, with some random rolling hills in the Piedmont between ridges

That looks sweet Larry! Do you know what paint code they used? My local Napa paint guy retired and his replacement can't find anything old. Big fun.

I already commented on the cab paint. I just want to say it's the 'c' that's silent in scent. Only psychologists can get away with starting words with a silent letter. The rest of us have to say (and spell) it how it is (except for silent second letters). Sent, cent, and scent. There are more ways to spell than there are words. "Hay For Sale", I see the signs in front of farms all the time. Those farmers really know how to grab your attention when selling something. But what's for sale?? I guess it's the same as CG's in-law's barn being razed, not raised

Hahaha.

Psychologist AND psychiatrist are spelled with a silent p. It's enough to make you crazy!

That barn is a piece of workmanship. The truck is looking good.
