Default Greetings from Aruba, I miss my ruby

While I'm down here enjoying the sun, beaches, drinks and of course, women, my ruby is getting a new top and some doorwork done just in time for me to return. I then have 2 days with it before I leave again for work...

No vettes here in aruba. There is a 1/4 mile strip though.

Run down the strip as fast as you can, making your best Corvette sounds! Don't spill your drink though!

If you go to the California Lighthouse or the golf course, on the way there you will probubly see a 78 Pace Car parked in the driveway of one of the houses on the way there. I can't remember the name of the road but it is the main one going the length of the island and runs in front of where we own our timeshare, LaCabana. We have been going there for the last 10 years.

you're right, I had the opportunity to visit the california lighthouse and I saw a C3 covered sitting outside. I noticed the undercarriage is rusted up though. I bet cars don't last long here with the salt water.

Cococunucu bus tonight. Carlos N charlies tomorrow night...

no wifey, just a girlfriend who thinks she is
