Re: Retirement trip out west...route 66

Very nice thanks for sharing. You have a beautiful car and girlfriend, and what a nice trip to take with both of them. Someday I hope to do take a similar trip with Ms. Cathy.

Re: Retirement trip out west...route 66

I'm glad I don't have to envy you since my car has taken me joyously accross America 3 times. That is why my plate says ZTHEUSA. You must have stopped to wash it every few days. The car matches the scenery. It's beautiful!!

Re: Retirement trip out west...route 66

Thanks for your service
What a great retirement trip!
I made several x-country trips while IN the service, but couldn't fit the "Grand Tour" in after my military retirement ...
What's the story on the '50's Cadillac bumper at the rest stop?
