My daughter and grand-daughter showed up on the door step yesterday at 8:30am, they drove for 14 hours straight so they could catch the first ferry to Vancouver Island and surprise me for my birthday today. She came a day early so that if they had a break down along the way she would still make it on time for my B-day. Today is just a day to do what ever I want, I have the day off work, but unfortunately my wrist is still messed up so I am some-what limited as to what I can do. I am just glad that part of my family is here with me, I guess it is a day for me to be spoiled by three of my girls  ------------------

I think I have to do that very fast. I had her (she is 14 months old) on my knee and we were watching T.V., I stopped on the speed channel and they had some 1/4 drags featuring  ricers and I kept saying "Ricers" to her while we were watching the drags. After a few minutes of this we went down to the garage and I fired up the mustang to pull it out and do some detail work to it, as it was idling out in the drive-way, I was holding Mckenzie and telling her that this was a real muscle car, she said "RICER" and pointed to the my mustang  ,I quickly told her "No" that this was a muscle car and kept repeating it until she said it. She now looks at the stang, points and says "Muckle Car" it is close enough for now. I was thinking I may have to trade this Grand-daughter in for another one, but I think I will keep her now , she is the love of my life. ------------------

My two grand daughters 2 and 4 1/2 laid on cardboard and made life size cut outs. They painted them like themselves. I did not have room in my garage to hang them so I put them in the back of the 65. ( And yes I made sure they had seatbelts on) Every time the 4 1/2 year old sees it she says Grandpa when can the real Aryana ride in your car. It is great every time you look to make a turn to see them out of the corner of your eye. Always have a driving buddy. That and every time I work on the car she has to be there to help. Never used so many tools in all my life though.------------------
