Cruisin'

A busy day, today. And it got even busier when I dragged my arse out of bed. Cleaned the cruiser, weeded the gardens, mowed the lawns, then had breakfast... :o)

This afternoon we traveled to the end of the world - we went to Ken Matthews' 60th birthday shindig. Ken lives somewhere between nowhere and east noplace. You can see everywhere from his deck!

From there we headed up to Hodgman's Frozen Custard to conduct the balloting for Super Cruise. They had quite a showing, considering today was also the first day of both the Super Cruise in Biddeford and the Kora Shriner's show at Twitchell's.

Thank goodness we ran into "Preacher" (Joe Malozzi) with his blue '51 Ford, Betty Lou. For awhile, we thought the devil had finally got ahold of Joe. But Joe is too fast for the Old Boy, I guess. He looks to be doing fine.

Dick Levesque, who for once was on the ball, gave me some pix of the show at Blue Hill earlier today, so I have posted them for you in the gallery. Thanx, Dick. You're a pretty good Dick. From all reports, the show at Blue Hill was excellent. Well organized, well judged.

Frank Barron was at the cruise (natch), and he was kind enough to do a NSRA Safety Inspection on our PT Woody. Frank's a Helluva good ol' boy, even though he doesn't shave every day (or ANY day). But then, I have only shaved twice in the last 44 years, myself.

Lotsa great vehicles at Hodgman's today. And a lot of ballots cast. This Super Cruise Award thing is getting to be a real horse race, with some fine contenders.

Well, I'll see some of you folks at Ossipee Valley Fair tomorrow. The rest of you will likely be at Twitchell's or the Super Cruise in Biddeford. Please keep me posted as to your experiences. Wherever you go, have a fine day, and good fortune.
