Seriously pre-Shelby...

Wow that's a lot of beach trash! I go through an approach avoidance conflict whether to throw a biodegradable banana peel in the woods if/ when I am in such a situation. I always end up keeping the peel until I emerge and find a trash can or I toss it in my car until I get home. I was never like that massive trash scene even at their age.  Too focused on order and conscientiousness. A blessing but also a curse.

It is an exciting experience to see one come back to life again.  Congratulations to a great build!

Glad you weren't caught and incarcerated, Richard.

I took my '66 E-Type out today and as soon as I got the revs up on my favorite twisty road, two Sheriff motor-officers were coming from the other direction, around a corner.  They both looked at me and I just waved.  My usual response.  I half expected to see them in my rearview any minute, but they kept on pedaling.

Check out this photo from today at 4PM on Pacific Coast Highway north of San Diego. It would normally be bumper to bumper. Great day for an old car drive.

Gotta make the best of the situation.  I'm declaring tomorrow Burn Out Day, and will be doing my part with my big V8 cars to make sure enough smoke is created to kill any virus near me.   

Beautiful shot from the Jaguar!  Have at it!

Rotation corrected.

Yes, my videography leaves much to be desired.  I thought by turning the phone on its side I would get a normal panoramic view when I uploaded.  I am trying to figure out how to rotate the video now that it is uploaded. 

I doubt that we will be stopped for being out.  My argument would be that driving a Shelby is a necessary service to keep the roads looking beautiful.  I think they will allow trips to the store to get food and to get gasoline.

Fixed it.  I ran the video through my youtube editor and it allowed me to rotate the video.  Easy one and done.

I have always called you the Renaissance Man because of the many hats you wear and talents;

At the very top your musical skills followed by the obvious

1. Strong Communication Skills

2. People Skills

3. Time Management Skills

4. Research Skills

5. Detail Oriented

6. Creativity

7. Judgement

8. Stress Management

9 . Business Skills

And I could go on but it would make many on the forum very envious, not that they are not now.

Hats off to the Renaissance Man

Signing off...floating off in the Atlantic Ocean with first mate Magellan....

I need to do the same.  I still have to go into the office tomorrow to meet a potential client.  Illinois has declared lawyers as essential services.  LOL!  Maybe piano teachers should be included in that as well.  The exceptions list is so long the exceptions practically swallow the rule.
I appreciate your compliments but the counter argument to that is Jack of all trades and master of none. I am focused more on my music lately than writing fiction.

Never been.  Would love to go.  But not now.  Crazy times but hey, I'm doing what I can to social distance and not contract or pass the virus.

Hijacking is fine by me.  Just ask DB Cooper. Takes one to hitherto unexplored areas. Whatever happened to that guy anyway...

Thanks Going Thing. And Tony I don't mind when my thread gets hijacked. I encourage a free flow of ideas no matter where it takes us.

Always makes me concerned when somebody's rear end is "abutting" the paint on a Shelby.  Regardless of the attractive nuisance that is the front end.
