As I drown quietly in the quagmire of middle age, I often wonder about past persons, events and
THINGS ....
Often we see the "Where are they Now" stuff .. old classmates, old GF/BFs, etc. How about something about some treasure THINGS we've had and forfeited or othewise parted company with.
For instance .. Back in the 80's a partner and I were restoring a full classic (look it up with CCCA) 1936 Buick Model 90 (Limited). We bought it for $1500 and spent 800 having it and the boxes it came in shipped to NY from Southern California.
The 'partnership' disolved about mid way through the resto and I invited myself to exit the project. Where is that damned car now? Huh? I used to put myself to sleep thinking about how good that old mohair broadcloth smelled and what it would be like to finally cruise her to Hershey.
Where are you now?
Makes me damned weepy not to know damnit. Geez, isnt' she simply gorgeous? (Trust me, that's a likeness).
