have ‘street rods’, time to back them outa the garage, give them a bath, and take
for a nice back roads cruise !!!It’ll feel ‘good’ to get outa the house!!!!….Pete.

Got a standby generator in December and I just got it wired up. It was/is a lot more involved than I thought. Plus there are permits and inspections and finally a guy certified to start it for the first time. I’ll be glad when it is done.

I went up to the ‘lake’ Sunday, and lots of boats were being launched at
Million Dollar Beach! There parking lot was packed with trucks and empty
boat trailers! I guess it’s to a point that some people want out of there
cages, and are jumping the gun,a bit, to feel free again!!!
Did I miss RHINEBECK….YOU BET I DID!!!

Ricky. a well deserved and way overdue commendation given to your brother for
going ‘above’and ‘beyond’ the call of duty! Here’s something very ‘special’ to
you and the family to be cherished and be proud of, my friend! THANK YOU for
sharing this with us…….Pete.

Saturday morning ‘surprise’! I had 1 1/2 inches of snow,and just northeast of me, had
6″ !!! The temp was down there too,with a slight wind! Isn’t this May? Spring? CRAZY!
I think Ricky White, might have been blessed also, as he’s close to me,just west.

Still waiting for word, the ‘Valley’ may open,for ‘test and tune’ ‘only’, in the near
future…….Pete.

It snowed here too but nothing on the ground. Then during the day a few bursts of snow and again nothing on the ground. Stay safe old guys.

Good to hear from you Pat! I talked to my long time friend,and hunting partner Jerry , in Rhinebeck the other day;
he’s still hibernating,and playing it safe! Even has his groceries delivered to his house.
Larry Hoyt, tinkering with his restored ‘classic’ stock car,in his garage in Elizaville, also,playing it safe!
Not much Pat, but there is a ‘little’ tiny light showing, at the end of the tunnel! You and the family, STAY SAFE!!!
Pete.

HEY! A few ‘street rods’ coming out of storage I see,while doing some yard work!
A ’32’ Ford 5 window coupe,channeled, dark primer, a ‘plastic’ 32 Ford 2 dr, sedan,
a ’41’ ‘plastic’ Willys p/u, a ’63’ Vette ‘split-window coupe,and a ‘cute’ stock
black ’56’ Volks ‘Bug’!
Any of you ‘ole’ timers take advantage, of this great weekend, to blow the dust off
of your ‘pride and joy’ ride???…..Pete.

[babycakesParticipant]

Frank M. I got the word from ‘V’ Bob, brother Jimmy is home,and right now, that’s
“GREAT” NEWS!!! I know it’s gonna be a while, before he’s up and about,and hoping
it won’t take long,and it’ll be a “BRIGHT LIGHT,AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL, once
again,to shine!!!…Keep the faith,my friend!!!……Pete.
