Sometimes that light at the end of the tunnel is the headlight of the train! Lol
The good news is that a good friend of ours lost the back half of his house.......

.........and the Corvette was in the garage in the front half. Whew! :banana:

I was worried for a moment about your definition of good news.

Yeah, if we'd have lost the vette my buddy would've been a drooling mental patient. Then I would've had to work on his house by myself.

And when my post was gonna split the pages.......had to do it!

It's been one of those weeks! Had a medical emergency in the family, and we finally got my daughter out of the hospital yesterday afternoon. We finally all got home, mentally and physically exhausted only to have the tornado sirens go off a couple of hours later and have a tornado touch down. It ran a 30 mile long track and began to head straight for my neighborhood!
We got lucky and it veered off just barely south of us. We got lucky, but a lot of people in our area didn't fare so well. It knocked out power and did a lot of damage to a brand new housing edition just a little ways from us.
I know they say when it rains it pours, and I can deal with that, but does it have to have a rain wrapped tornado in the middle of it? I mean, come on. Really?
Oh well, no sense worrying about what we can't change. Luckily, I seem to live in an area that seems to thread the needle. We're a newer housing edition so our power lines are underground. And the really bad weather always seems to head straight for us and then either veers just north or south of us.
Definitely counting our blessings this morning.

Man that's rough!! I so happy to hear that you guys are all safe. I hope your daughter gets well soon!

I would feel his pain!! ;)

Yeah, he has C7.R on pre order and will tell anyone who will stand still long enough. LOL

I've had 2 in the past, been a while, but the woman made me get rid of them. :grr::(:cry:

If you've never owned one you wouldn't fully understand.
I actually got to go to the grand opening of the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green and watch the last of that ZR1 series roll off the line and meet Duntov.
The engine was built in my hometown and my roommate and brother both worked for the manufacturer and we all got to go. Still funny to think a marine engine manufacturer made the LT5 engine for the Corvette ZR1 in podunk Stillwater, Oklahoma. Lol

That's cool. They are a dime a dozen down here since there's no snow. I usually take it out once a week for rides up and down the coast. Mostly drive the truck around town.

God I love the Laguna Blue. It's beautiful. So, so jealous, lol.

I couldn't find one down here in that color. Found one from a dealer in the Panhandle. Had them ship it down here by carrier. I guess that tells you how much I like the color! :D

Yeah, I had an RX-7 when I stumbled across my first one. It was too good a deal to pass up.
Having 2 2-seaters was definitely not my brightest decision, or very convenient. Thank god I was single at the time, and the extent of my grocery shopping was beer so there was plenty of room.
