    We had another grand adventure riding across the mountain today. We covered about 100 miles, mostly on Forest Service dirt roads.

    My wife and I took the '27 Bugatti out for a ride across the mountain today. Might as well dress the part.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Honkeytonks and boot leg joints. When I was in my youth, there were a number of honkeytonks and boot leg joints all around. Once liquor by the drink passed in the 1980s, all those places dried up. There used to be a cutting or shooting every Friday and Saturday night, but no more. Beer...

    What are you wearing today??

    Yes, that's one of my grandsons. That's Sam and he's 4 years old (but he'll tell you "I'll be 5").

    My grandson Sam getting ready to head out with me to work. He's holding his great-great grandfather's lunch pail from the 1920s. I wonder how many times his great-great grandfather sat on those very same steps prior to leaving for work.

    The Sunday Drive

    The Sunday Drive

    Thanks for the kind words. The old railway station looks like a place I'd like to visit. I'm always glad when older buildings can be saved and repurposed.

    Now Forming! the Campaign Hat Corps

    I especially like this one, as I believe it looks exactly like the one my great uncle Malcolm Jimerson had in the Spanish American War. I grew up hearing stories about Malcolm from my grandmother. Malcolm was her only brother and he died in 1898 duringt War. His death was a tremendous...

    It's a fun ride and does look cool. I get a lot of looks riding in that car.
