That’s me in the local newspaper

Article about OC,SH & me, published online on my birthday, 09/19, & appeared in the 09/21/2014 print edition:
http://couriernews.suntimes.com/2014/09/19/heart-felt-facebook-page/


09/22/2014, watched “The Rockford Files”, then drove my 1989 Caprice Classic Brougham on the road for the 1st time in over a year … will make it more difficult to sell it & my 1979 Caprice Classic.  Also drove the ‘81mc on the road for the 1st time in over 2 years.  Odd therapy … mix of invigoration, sadness & memories.  Ended the afternoon by watching “CHiPs”.


Always remember.  Things CAN switch in a heartbeat.
Easy to support when things are well; challenging when not.
Easy to hope someone is OK; challenging to reach out to them.
Easy to claim to be a good friend; challenging to show it.
Easy to wish you could help; challenging to actually do so.

So glad I have my OLD CARS, STRONG HEARTS facebook page (& related ‘OC,SH express’ group) to keep me smiling & "talking old cars & sparking memories"!

Sunny, warm days (which seem to be disappearing now) make me want to just drive: sunny-day only car(s) or a road trip.  Wish life was a bit slower paced & money wasn’t the basis for so much….

I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.
