Jim,


If you'll recall the last time we got together for drinks, you met my friend Karen at her restaurant...
Well, that would be her toy.

I knew I liked her for a reason.

My garage.

It took about 6 months to make the improvements I wanted and to then clean out all the debris from making improvements. But at last, this past weekend I finally got to start moving some cars in.



It may not look like much to some, but I am proud of it.

I saw that exact same overpass on Tuesday at the Vancouver Airport, but I didn't have a camera with me.

I Parked my SC next to a Vert at the Winery and put a not on it that said "Pelicanparts.com?" and my name.

He said no he was a PCA member and that he was having dinner at 7:45. We were heading back to Sylva for dinner so I could not meet up.

Sat. was my 17th Wedding anny and any more time spend on the "car thing" would have been poor judgement on my part. It was a romantic day for me and the wife to spend along together. It was the 1st time we had been alone without our kids since our 16th last year so I thought it wise give the car thing a break.

Any of you guys heading to the Dragon event the 1st weekend of Nov?

I went to the Race Rock Cafe in Orlando with the wife and kids over the weekend.

I spoke with the manager after walking around the place because I was amazed at what I was seeing and wanted to know if it was real. He said, yes, its real, and every week he is offered rediculas money to sell an item to a crazed fan.

Many minerals will reform in their natural crystalline structure after being liquified.
When you find natural quartz deposits, all the quartz rocks will be distinctly shaped.
When you dissolve salt in boiling water, then let the water evaporate, the salt will reform into crystals

These formations pictured are of a mineral called basalt. It was liquified in volcanic activity, then it cooled and formed into it's natural crystal shape.
