Friday "Just for Fun" post

Yep - and in those days we didn't have to worry about gas mileage and price of gas, so much.  I DO remember saying (back in 81) that when it hit $1 a gallon I was going to stop driving - LOL

 1.  What was your very first car and how old were you when you got it?

'69 VW Bug in cherry condition. I had just graduated from college so 21, about to turn 22.

2.  What are your weekend plans?

It's going to be a low key weekend. I'm swimming tonight around Santa Cruz pier, then a "short" bike ride tomorrow (probably 50 miles), then Sunday we drop Mini-Mac off to the bus for camp and somewhere in there I want to do a 2 hour run and maybe then another 1 hour run later in the day. Somewhere in there, I want to see the new HP movie.

3.  What is your favorite food on the grill?

Anything grilled! But I love it when people grill veggies. It's not something I get to experience very often.

1.  What was your very first car and how old were you when you got it?
1972 Honda Coupe. I was 17 and it was mine! 2 spark plugs, 6" wheels and it held 6 gallons of gas. I had this during the gas crisis of 1973-74.  lol


2.  What are your weekend plans?
I gotta pay the bills this weekend. Not sure what else.

3.  What is your favorite food on the grill?
Bratwurst.

1 - 1974 Ford Mustang - silver with black landau top - WAY too cool for me. Gas was 75 c per gallon. I was 16 and my Mom went out "shopping" one day and came home with it. Surprised the hell out of my Dad he couldn't believe she did it. The most fun car I've owned to date! I ran into so many cars with that big old hunk of metal -- my Dad still calls me "crash".

2 - Husband's birthday was yesterday so we are having a family party tomorrow!! Spent the day at the water park today -- had a blast!

3 - A burger is the easiest thing for me --- still!

1. What was your very first car and how old were you when you got it? My first car was my dad's old Oldsmobile Cutless, I think it was a 67 or 68. A few days after I got it I went to buy gas and it caught on fire. My dad said he had just had the carburater worked on and they must have messed it up. Then I got a 1969 red Toyota Corona. I loved that car. It was a stick shift and didn't use much gas. I was 18. I wrecked that car and bought my step brothers 1972 Ford Pinto. That was a fun car, too. Ugly mustard yellow. Ran that to the ground.

2. What are your weekend plans? Might go see the grand kids. I just got a membership at the community center so I may ride my bike there and go swimming. Trying to be more active.

3. What is your favorite food on the grill? I love chicken but I also like steak and shrimp, too.
