Street Wheelers Friday

Ya! Kathy and Jim made it down from Yellowknife, finally. They had some problems with things being done on time, etc, but they are here now! And that's all that matters. Kathy even had a job interview lined up @ 10:30 - sounds like it's hers, if she wants it. Of course, depends on the money they would offer...

So we had a great visit at the house before we went out to see the cars. They had actually spent the money to go in the "controled cruise" on 3rd Ave. All of $10. So they headed off to do that, and we went over quickly to Dave's sister's house (Donna) to see the other sister Trish and her hubby. They are with the Cirque du Soleil group in Vancouver, by way of Oregon, on their way to Austrailia for 14 months. Got all that?

Then we went to watch the cruise. It's like 9 p.m. by this time. Mistake #1: Took Gracie with us. All the screeching tires and BIG trucks blowing their horns, made her very skittish. Crap. We saw Jim & Kathy across 3rd, standing on the side of the road, 'cause of course, their car overheated. See, told ya! LOL Anyway, we had to take poor Gracie back home, so by time we got back, it's 9:30. Mistake #2: Don't start so late! 'Cause now it's getting dark, and I can't take pics!! CRAP!! So I'll take shots at the Show & Shine tomorrow at the Galt Gardens.

Jim & Dave are going to install an electric fan on their car this morning. And of course, they'll be tweaking and shining. Jim has their car in the Show and Shine. Dave's poor old car still has the original paint, you have to sneak up on it to polish it, 'cause there is hardly any paint left!!
