Posted Friday in the Star Telegram ....Cheers: To the two men who helped a duck and her babies at the intersection of Grapevine Highway and Precinct Line Road. The ducks were halfway across when the light changed; two or three babies were run over. The men got mama to return to the other side of the street.

Must be a trick in the way the camera took the photo, the yellow and silver cars look wider than the zr1!

Passing this along... DJ and Jim have been visitors in the past and many of you have Jim work on your car...

From Christian Classic Cruisers

Our thoughts and prayers are with DJ (David) Welch, son of one of our Sponsors - Mid Cities Classic, following a very serious car accident that past weekend. He is in great pain from the road rash burns and more. Please join with us in prayers for a speedy and full recovery. Also, prayer and support for mom and dad as they tend to the care and recovery of DJ...
