    On my drive home ....

    I have driven past this pet store before and thought that their mural was really nice. This morning I brought my camera with me and took a picture of it while I was driving home from work. Work is just an excuse to drive my Falcon.

    Dennis - Have you submitted a picture of your car, in one of these cool locations, for the calendar? We'll make sure you get a copy even if you're not able to drive all the way across the country to Griots on the 14th of September.

    Thanks, Roger!

    I had hesitated to send something because Joanna said that it needed to be "high resolution" and my photos were made "low resolution" in order to send them by e-mail. I sent the following photo to Joanna and she said that the resolution was "probably OK". I like the "Explore Florida" title. It will surprise my wife if this gets included. She will be a "Calendar Girl".

    One time when I first started driving the Falcon, I was leaving to get some gas. My wife went with me, but she was wearing some old house clothes. While we were at the gas station a guy walked up and started telling us how he had learned to drive in a Falcon. Then a girl ran up and and was all excited and asked if she could take pictures of the car to send to her father. My wife sank further and further down in the seat while the girl took pictures. Now my wife always gets dressed up when we go for a ride.

    That's a great story! I can see that happening. I've only had my falcon out once (in the last 35 years) and three people came up to talk about it. I can't wait to get it driveable again.

    Dennis, Maybe you could go out somewhere scenic for the purpose of getting a hi-res pic (I think you still have time before deadline?). I for one would be disappointed to NOT see your car in our calendar.
