Bummer, WK,
Wish you lived closer! Lonely can be really tough. Without the Dog, I'd be a nut-cake. Bill W.

Man I really feel for you guys that are lonely..................(bet it's quiet)
I am surrounded the Kids, (gurlz) the dawg, and Womens.
My Pop is ill, so he dodged the event,tbut I really miss him being here.

You boys might head down to the local center to interact with those that would be interested in your cars, and take on life.
You'll never know who'll you'll meet or the fiends you make.
Merry HoHo, Press on and don't stop!

Our dog had to be put down in October, our daughter came in from LA with her Chihuahua, good to have a dog in the house again! Had a nice day with the family too. First time I've ever been around one of the little guys, great dog, looks like a Lab puppy that will never grow up. Bob

Bill, you're not alone....you have all of us! We're just not all sitting in your living room, eating your food and drinking your liquor. Keep active here, we won't leave you.

Thank you Mark,
We're gradually doin' better, takes time to get used to Pat bein' gone after 55 years together. She's with Jesus now & PERFECT! As much as I miss her, it would be SELFISH for me to wish her back! After 6 months, I'm ready to finish Vermin and post a whole passle of pics to prove he really EXISTS! (Most of my friends don't believe I had a backup '29 Coupe when I had to sell Minerva, my Black Phantom Early '30 Std. Coupe that would run 80 MPH with 3.78 gears & NO overdrive!) Pat loved that car, even after her Dementia got real bad, we roared around everywhere, laughin' like IDIOTS!! Bill W. ( HEY! I just accidentally discovered this key ~~~~~~ Does your keyboard have it?? It's just to the left of this key !!!!!!! I don't know what it MEANS?? Dog also says?????

Pretty amazing how many of us were on FordBarn yesterday. I don't think it means we were all lonely. Just shows how great a website this is and how strong the appeal to all of us for our prized possessions!

Spent some time here in the morning, then off to the girlfriend's house to make breakfast for her visiting from NYC daughter and boyfriend, then off to my son;s inlaws for bottle exchange with them, my son and daughter in law, and my daughter and grandson. (grandson did not get a bottle, he got car model kits) That was followed by a great dinner, and a trip home to watch British comedy on the PBS channel. A wonderful day in all.
Much better than the day before, when we laid to rest the father of our friend.

Glad you had the dog, and remember you have us.
