My first 'vette
It only took 43 years, but I finally have my first 'vette. I have wanted one since I was 17 (you do the math). I wanted to a 2003 50th Anniversary Edition when the model came out, but I had to wait. Well, I found a one owner on the web and couldn't let it get away. I drove 4 hours Saturday to pick it up and it was well work the drive. ONce I got it home, I felt like a teenager who had just gotten his driver's license, i.e. wondering if my wife needed something from the store so I could drive. It's a dream come true.
