Good times

Spent a few days with family this past week (Monday-Thursday) and had a very good time. Just want to thank Jim and Melody McKinney for their hospitality and kindness in putting up with an old fart like me!

Always a busy schedule there, never a dull moment. Besides the trips to see other members of the family, I went with Jim to take a couple of cars to the scrapyard and also pick up a couple to be scrapped. Jim is a busy man.

Especially enjoyed the trip down to Crab Orchard to see sisters Sharon and Kathy, as well as my brother Rickey. And a bonus as my niece Jamie Ann showed up with her husband (Chuck) and their children. Not to mention a good meal at the Past Time Cafe.

I was unable to stay for the wedding of my niece Amy to husband-to-be Ben, but since the wedding was to take place at 5:30 PM today, they may already be husband and wife by now. So congratulations to Ben and Amy, may your life together be everything you hoped it would be and more.

Got back home Thursday afternoon and took a nice long nap. Went to bed early also as I was very tired from the trip. Didn't do much yesterday either with another midday nap. Ended up going to bed after midnight and didn't get up until 10:30 this morning! I think I was just wore out from all the good food I had to eat down in Kentucky LOL.

At last, today I had a little energy and decided it was time to do a cold start video of my 1961 Buick LeSabre. I had been wanting to do one like this (using 2 cameras) for some time now and finally got the job done. You can see the video on YouTube by clicking the link below:
