Good morning GH. It is fast closing on 8:30 AM in "The City" and the sun is on the rise. Our current temperature is 59 cool degrees, as we head for a 0% precipitation high of 81 sunny degrees. No rain expected until Thursday, so I'll be watering more this week. Sugar is quite content with that part of the forecast.

Speaking of Sugar, we'll be heading out for a walk this morning and then retiring to the "Bone Zone" later in the day. She wanted the bone yesterday, but I think she will appreciate it more a day later. I think that, but I doubt that she would see it that way.

Other than that walk and the "Bone Zone" activity, I don't plan to do much. It is time to slow down a bit. Of course I always say that, but I have been active enough for a while. While Mary works, I'll read and listen to oldies. Tomorrow, I have to get to work for the boss and earn my keep.

Yesterday in the AM, we walked with Sugar and then went to the church for the car show and rummage sale. I got pictures of the cars and Mary got something she always scopes for, another cookbook. I'll share those pictures at the end. I went to the Irish Jam session in the PM while Mary visited the Art on the Waterfront show. Afterwards, we stopped to see Dave at one of the local watering holes. Then it was time for the Grand Haven Channel. However, Mary decided that it would be a good idea to get some up close and personal time with the band on the stage last night rather than listening from there, so we walked two blocks for that.

In sports, the boys in blue had their previous shutout performance returned by the Cardinals, 0 - 4. The Tigers took extra innings, but they bounced back from that double header loss to the Royals on Friday with a walk off home run by Miguel Cabrera in the ninth. That brought chants of MVP for Cabrera. My beloved Red Sox trounced the Yankees 6 - 1 as the Yankees left fielder committed base running and fielding gaffes reminiscent of his days with the boys in blue. The Caps eked out a win over the Dayton Dragons 2 - 1.

So, that;s about it for yesterday and today, so on to those pictures. Ciao.

The Man Cave outer doors.

First car in the show, a 1959 Corvette

A vintage Porsche Speedster

A fine example of a 1972 DeTomaso Pantera

You can't tell from the picture, but this vehicle was exquisite. An early 1950s Chevrolet.

I just thought that this captured several genres and eras.

Automotive excess, circa 1970s

One of the rows, featuring a Road Runner, a Chevelle SS, a 1968 Z28  with the factory installed headers, etc.

More automotive excess circa 1960s
