"Fastest car in the valley", that was the rumor. ;-)
I took the Charger to the car wash yesterday. Some guy in a new pickup pulls up and asks me "want to race?" So I'm like, well, probably not up a mountain or in the dirt. He smiles and says, remember me, I used to drive a 1971 Chevelle SS, yellow, black stripes 454 - 4 speed. It comes back to me in an instant.
This is the same guy in high school that used to challenge me to a race nearly every time he'd put a new part on his Chevelle. Off we'd go to Highway 27, just outside of town, stage up, and the first one to the 45 mph sign was the winner. His Chevelle was screaming fast, as were most of the cars that I raced on that highway. But I always had the one thing they didn't. Traction.
I'd hook up on the launch and my opponents would go up in smoke deep into first gear, which would give me about a car length. I was always able to hold them off past that crazy sign. Never lost once. Undoubtedly got lucky occasionally, but a win is a win.
Most Saturday nights you'd eventually find us at the local Sambo's restaurant, drinking 25¢ coffee and recounting the nights misadventures. That's when a challenger to the throne would come in and say "hey!, I hear you're the one to beat around here". We'd all jump in our cars, head to the highway, and settle the score. It was surreal in the best possible way.
During our quick visit, "Mr. Chevelle" even shared he was just talking to someone a few weeks ago about how he and I used to race all the time.
His always co-pilot Jim, used to tell me how he'd "shined the rear bumper up real nice, so I can see my reflection as they blow my doors off". Just get in the car Jim. ;-)
Too much fun!
It was great seeing Jerry and meeting his grandson. Don't think I've seen him in 25 years.

This little garden (behind a quaint little shop on George
Street) has been rented to numerous different shop keepers
and their wares over the years. At this very moment it is a
gourmet-pretzel-establishment with a little eating area at the
'back right.' What will it be next year? - Thanks for looking
*[there is a cute little-old-cabin 'in the back left' that they have
now hidden with landscaping...but it's still back there! LOL]
*[probably the neatest and nicest it's looked in a long time!]
Our House in the middle of the street, built and dated around 1788 ...... I can't put a date on this picture of Haugh Fold snapped many years ago. If anyone can help that would be great! We have this pic in our porch, along with another.
At the top of the street is open land, now of which is Haugh Square ..... ( check out my previous upload of Haugh Square).

Title of poem by Langston Hughes
I dream a world where man
No other man will scorn,
Where love will bless the earth
And peace its paths adorn
I dream a world where all
Will know sweet freedom’s way,
Where greed no longer saps the soul
Nor avarice blights our day.
A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth
And every man is free,
Where wretchedness will hang its head
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind-
Of such I dream, my world!
Either write something worth reading
or do something worth writing about.
(Benjamin Franklin)

Macro Mondays - Back in the Day
(photo by Freya)
This is a toothpick holder and my Grandmother had one! I found out they were made in the 40's and 50's and when I saw one at a flea market some thirty years ago, I had to have it because of the memories it brought back. You press on the woodpeckers head and he leans forward and handily picks up the toothpick for you. HMM!

The first thought I had for the theme #BackInTheDay, was the floppy disk which I still remember using when storing important documents for school work. Once I forgot to store it on one of this and had a huge loss of work.
Nowadays its so simple to have a small USB in the purse or even store online in clouds.
Despite this is so old-fashioned, i kind of enjoy memories of using it. Makes me realise how easy we have it nowadays.
A lovely Easter to everyone, HMM!
