Tilly attended the car show in Park Rapids yesterday. She is looking fine. Far Guy spent a number of hours making sure she was as perfect as she could be for the car show.
Tilly has "stuff" a Drive In Theater speaker and a take out tray with A & W mugs.
Now meet Tilly's rich sister Sugar Plum. She belongs to Pat and Mona from up north.
Sugar Plum has all the bells and whistles that can be on a 1959 Desoto...versus pain jane Tilly.
Pat and Mona's Sugar Plum Desoto won two trophies...Lion's Choice and Best Orphan. We are very happy for them!!
It was a bit cool especially early in the morning...I was thankful for a coat. Far Guy said it was 44F when he got up. We had a good time visiting with a number of friends and relatives during the car show. We came home and had a nap..or in my case a sleep as daughter Jen as said " Mom a nap is two hours or less."
Far Side
Love the drive-in speaker and the A&W tray, those two things alone make Tilly a winner in my mind!
ReplyDeleteSounds like my naps/sleeps now days...morning, noon, and night...and some eating and household chores in between. Glad you two are feeling well enough to go to a fun car show.
ReplyDeleteWow! Looks like it was perfect weather for a car show and Tilly looks great.
ReplyDeleteI do like walking around at car shows...everything is so clean and shiny!
I think Tilly looks pretty cool too
ReplyDeleteTilly looks every bit as good as her rich sister! Love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteWatch out, girl, Far Guy has a new lady and her name is Matilda🥰 Galla Creek
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a good time. It's nice to have a rich sister!
ReplyDeleteYAY for a break in the same 'ol same 'ol!!
ReplyDeleteThey are both lovely vehicles. Sounds like you both had a enjoyable time visiting friends and family.
ReplyDeleteTilly looks great! I LOVE the touches. Sugar Plum--great bumper sticker. Of course, I am partial to Tilly. ;)
ReplyDeleteSo strange to feel a hint of fall in the air already in one of our hottest months...but I am loving it! :)
He must be quite proud of his car!
ReplyDeleteYes, I am liking the cooler nights here.
Tilly is looking grand, Nice touch with the A&W gear.
ReplyDeleteI think Tilly looks very spiffy!! We walked through a small car show a couple weeks ago. They had quite a few 60s muscle cars, and not as many classics like Tilly and her rich sister.
ReplyDeleteBoth old cars are beautiful as only the oldies can be. Both Tilly and Sugar Plum are winners in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteYou get a lot of pleasure out of car shows. You visit and learn things.
ReplyDeleteTilly looks lovely - just as good as her rich sister with all her trimmings!
ReplyDeleteI'm staying loyal to Tilly. What is "orphan"?
ReplyDeleteAny car manufacturer that is no longer in business.
DeleteTilly and her "stuff" are just as good as the rich sister!
ReplyDeleteIt is funny how car makers made such a difference in their models. I think Sugar Plum looks great but I think all one color is actually a purer look. I guess some paint tape and paint could give Tilly a new twist but she doesn't need it. Two tones was such a fad for a while. Our 57 Fairlane had that fancy pazazz on the side too.
ReplyDeleteThose car shows look like fun. Love Jen's advice on "naps".
