Post by: Russell on May 07, 2012, 22:26:57 pm
So its the Mayday weekend in the UK so decided to take one of the older cars out for a spin, however it broke on the 1st day ....... Fuel Pump and we were 95 miles from home... great.

So on Sunday it rained and my son helped me build my birthday prescent.

Today we came home, car on trailer  :(

Russell, our wonderful gas (petrol) is killing these old fuel pumps. Sorry to say, once they sit for a spell, the damage is done.

me = boring.

Saturday spent all day with a cherry picker and a chainsaw cutting down a tree at the front of house.

Monday = went to the natural history and science museums.

Spotted a 1965 beetle about 50ft up hanging from the wall, my first barn find!  My son loved the T-Rex!!!!

Hard to tell, but those hubcaps look like '66-'67. Cool display, though.

Saturday = my younger son stopped by and we painted the radiator grille on his truck. Then went to lunch with an old friend.

Sunday = one of my female friends and I met for breakfast at my favorite eatery, Harbor House Cafe in Sunset Beach. Then rode our bikes about twenty miles down past the Huntington Beach pier and back. Later, I rode my skateboard in my favorite pool... the Combi at Vans skatepark in Orange, CA.

FUN weekend.
