You can be my friend but that was long time ago when I was young and stupid.....LOL actually guys, 27-30 years ago these cars as well as the camaros, the mustangs, they were a dime a dozen. If one ever knew......... You couldn't get rid of them things back then. 1967 mustangs were selling as brand new cars with all the options for about $3,250 I believe....

he and his little brother grew up in the water. we have lived by the ocean their whole lives and always had access to a pool too. we spend about 3 or 4 hours a day in the pool in the summer and every once i a while hit up the beach. the big pool on base is about 5 minutes away and the beach is about 20 minutes. we never go in the water at the end of our street because to many drunk people fishing have thrown so much broken glass in the water that its not safe.

did i show you guys this picture?

i am on the street that has the pier on the end of it that has the A on it. it takes about 3 minutes to walk to the end of the street.

this picture is from the end of the street

here is hte pool on base

and everyone knows what the beach looks like

i figure that soon it will be time to take the kids and teach them to surf.

i get up at 0630 to take the kids to school. come home do wash and work around hte house. at 1200, i head to work. at 2230 i get off work and head home. by 2300 i am in bed wishing i was sleeping but can;t fall asleep. i usually get up 3 or 4 times a night because i hear people pull into my driveway. they are turning around or something because they just pull in and back up and go the other way.

I used to live on Clearwater Beach. Hated it when people pulled in my driveway, high beams shining in my bedroom windows. We sold the house and built a new one in the country. Only 3 homes on my street, lime stone paved road so only people living on my stree drive by, gates at my driveway, house in the middle of 10 acres property. At night dark as it can be because there are no street lights or any other lights within 4 miles. Best part, my 30x60 feet machine shop just behind my house. Just took delivery to my car lift two weeks ago. Everything still in the boxes. I can't sleep when at home because I want to be in the shop. When I was younger, all I wanted was to snuggle up with my wife in bed... Now I want to be in the shop. Getting old is getting to be really fun now!
