Unexpected Compliments Today
So I go to the weekly show in Burtonsville, Md. known as the "Church of the Holy Donut", lot of forum members there..Beautiful morning!!, Leave there, pickup girlfriend and tool around old town Annapolis, right on the water..nice, drop her back home, go to pick up Mom at her retirement community for her Sunday visit, pull up to the front entrance, Black 02 vert, top down, car looking pretty clean today, Helping Mom into car, 90ish Lady in motorized wheelchair going by stops.."That sure is a SNAZZY car..what is that??" Corvette I respond. Not 5 minutes later, we stop at a local produce stand to pick up some corn on the cob, again helping Mom into the car, 65ish gentleman walking by, disgusted look on his face, looking at mom, looking at the car, looking at mom, looking at the car, I come around to get in drivers side, his wife trailing behind, 65ish, puts her hand up to her mouth so she could whisper to me " nice car " As if she just made him get rid of his..Wow I didn't think older people knew the difference..Corvettes' are timeless!!

Cars looking great my friend!
Not only did I see it this morning at the Donut, but me and my girlfriend were sitting on the balcony of the Fleet Reserve Club in Annapolis when across the way I saw a black convertable C5 pull up to the water front.
And low and behold who got out?
Thats right, my man Tbar

I had a similar occurrence coming out of the supermarket one evening. A gentleman in his 70's was looking at my 02 coupe; he said "That sure is a beautiful car - it looks like it's going a hundred miles an hour even when it's standing still." I drove home with a smile on my face.
