I am way too big to get on top of my fridge, so you will have to settle for these photos...the first is me and Laurie, the second is my wife Susan with Laurie.


Look at all the smiles! Such great pictures!!!

On the road again...

Laurie just left Monument, CO and is now on her way up to Loveland for a visit with Tia Anne. My wife and I truly enjoyed Laurie's visit and we gave her a standing invitation to stay with us again. I think my wife really enjoyed having someone she could talk to about anything, and I was happy to hear my wife call me 'Jessica' in her conversations with Laurie! Safe travels Laurie... until we meet again...(((Hugs)))

I think Laurie would look good driving either one, but an AMC Ambassador 401 V8 in an Austin Ambassador would move pretty quick.

I had a '68 AMX, it went pretty good. The factory valves and compression ratio were the same as a Chevy...after the Chevy went to a machine shop for head work and oversize valves.

Depends on the engine. The chevy big blocks were pretty good out of the box, especially the 427 and 454. I like Oldsmobiles. 455 W-30. You can still buy high performance small and big blocks from Chevy. I think they still have the LS-6 454.

Ummmm uhhh Kids can I have my thread back? Please?

Another short update:  As Jessica Rose indicated, I am no longer there. Though I could have stayed another day or two swapping stories with Susan . Oh yeah Jessica too. But I needed to get on down the road because I was expected elsewhere. I am now enjoying the hospitality of Anne and Debi in Loveland Colorado. Jane as in Janes Groove had contacted me and suggested Anne, Debi, Her and I get together for lunch. So we met at Racine's in Denver for lunch.



  As we were trying to get out of that place of too many people, one way streets and too many buildings I was taken down a street to have a look at the Clyde mausoleum. Maybe I shall will Mouning's? Mowing's? oh you know That Woman's Clyde to the Clyde mausoleum when I'm gone. She had cast him off long ago unceremoniously. I rescued Clyde and gave him a resting place of honor on my desk. Any way here is his possible future resting place.

Hugs,
   Laurie

Thank you Laurie. My apologies to you, Girl, I missed a day or so with that pesky work thingy stuff and I did  miss your posting. It is nice to see you got over the embarrassment of meeting with someone who/whom you can't pronounce their name. Oh, and thank you for pointing out how it is my fault that you can't pronounce it. I now see the error of my ways (not.) Anyway, I did want the picture out there of me and my 3 very super, fantastic, wonderful friends. I am still getting over the trauma of the food pictures, but the doctors tell me I should have a full recovery. ;D
Love you, be safe,
Moni

Just a very public personal note to Michelle: Miss Laurie is on her way (2pm Colorado time), safe, sound (???), well fed and well loved. Thank you for the loan of that girl. Bye the way, she is late getting out of here, she really sucks at short good byes but we each had tears in our eyes as we walked her to her truck.

She is invited back anytime but we requested that next time she graces our presence she be accompanied by a certain Bay Area girl. The guest bed is big enough for two.

Dodge the cowgirls and cowboys in the land of cattle as you're  guided by Polaris in the sky. 
Bear to where the sky becomes golden in the evening. 
As you pass the Crystal City, beware of the beehives and the vast white wasteland of Bonny's before you reach Ruby's mountain. 
Avoid "battling" that or any mountain in this land of brown and sand! 
Try your luck for fame and fortune by spinning the big wheel of chance at Winnie's Mecca!
Free electrolysis before you reach the land of "no last call" in the valley of Sparks.
As you enter the promised land you may find your trusty steed may want to steer you towards a mighty pond in the sky to its Mecca of Truc Key.
Mistress Michelle is working on gaining control beforehand.
Enter the Valley of Lawns, but do not breath!! For you may loose your way and miss the turn at the sack of tomatoes in the road.
Ride past the fair fields and you shall be soon with your baby!
