Another cruise

We took the FMC out for a little local run last night. Every Sunday, we go to my inlaws for dinner. Last night, we took #708 out for a run. It performed beautifully and our new dog thoroughly enjoyed her first trip in the FMC. We filled it with gas at the cheapest place in our area. Ouch!

We head down to LA in April to take the kids to Disneyland. We have a few projects to get done before then. Greg has to get the new mirrors installed. I have to fix the bunks so the kids don't fall through them.

Ruby, the back dash dog!

Out for a Spin

Greg started up the FMC tonight -- just to give it a run for awhile. I suggested we go for a drive. What the heck . . . it's only money! :)

So, we did. The kids were so excited! We drove over to my MIL's and wished her a happy birthday in person! That was fun and such a surprise!

Then we came home and had a late dinner. I think the kids favorite part was climbing in the back to help Daddy back up . . .

Fill 'er up!

On our way home from the Rally, we filled our gas tank for the first time. Ouch! We stopped at $75 because the pump wanted to anyway. I think we'll just ease into this whole expensive gas thing gently!

Greg was hamming up the pained expression on his face. Note the FMC windbreaker and hat!

A fitting tribute!

Jim Evans took my pics and Stephan Heindrick's pics and put together a slide show about the Felton Rally. It's got my all-time favorite song -- Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi as the background music. Totally fun!

Here is a link to it.
