Great Day....

Today was a Special Day...I have wanted a Vette since I was 16...Now 55 and we have a Friend...(Wife's) friend...who has 4 Twin boys...Not Identical But Twins...they are 12 and are Huge Corvette Fans..Today they Got Their Wish and got to Ride in a Vette....and I gave them the Full Price worth...First one when he got out said it was the best day of his Life...LOL...one is a Special Needs Child...He had a Blast and was a Speed Demon..Faster the Better...

....He gave it 2 thumbs up...I am not sure which I Loved Most...Owning a Vette Or Taking Kids for a Ride who Love Them....Yep it's the Kids..Good Times....

That's what it is all about Pappy, I don't think they will ever forget it !!!!

When I was in 9th grade and saw a 59 and a 62 both black racing down the street, I said to myself I have to have one of those !!!! I have had 6 and one was a 59 !!!!!!!
