Mostly about my backyard chickens. (Boring, I know), but there are a lot of us out here. Mine are only kept as pampered pets. I could eat a neighbor's chicken, but not MINE. There may be a comment on current events only if I get riled up enough. And there will always be a cartoon or a joke to cheer us. I promise to try my very best to respond to comments. Now I have to figure out how this blogger thingy works....
Did you ride the last half block on the running board when your father drove home from work? I did many days. I was thinking "no Cord" pictured. Then i discovered they didn't build one in 1935. They restarted production in 1936.
OMG! How did you know??? He had a '39 Plymouth. Used to wait for him at the corner every day; he would stop and I would hop on the running board and hold on for dear life! Oh, what fun that was!!
Love it! Dad would be in jail, today - probably death row, for allowing a mere 'child' to stand on the running board. But Lord, what fun it was! We used to hang over the back of my Uncle's convertible knees on the seat, hands waving at any passing car. We could have been jounced out of the car, but as they say, that which does not kill you...
Years later a friend had an old car with a rumble seat. A whole bunch of us would hide in there to get into the drive-in for free. Bad, bad, bad - but so much fun back then!
