Museum trip
Took a day trip in Cadzilla to stretch out the ponies before the long winter months put her in the barn for a bit. Visited the museum at Bowling Green. They have a pretty neat Corvair display until the end of the month if anyone is going that way stop in it is very cool. It brought back some memories of my Dad's Corvair. They actually had one which looked almost identical to my Dad's with the same color.
On the way home a few other cars wanted to play but found out the hard way the V is not your Daddy's Caddie. Let's just say I averaged almost 20 MPG on the way down which is good for this beast. On the way home, well I managed to eek out 11 MPG. The trip home was more fun than the trip down though. |

Of all the dumb things I've done I walked out of the house without the camera. I realized this about a half hour down the road and thought I'd buy a disposable one at the museum only to forget this too. I might take a trip back again and then take a few pictures.

Wish I lived closer. I'd love to check out that display - always loved those cars.
