Mid-Life Crisis?

I guess in our case it is a little later than mid-life, but it is more like a celebration of our 45th wedding anniversary and the 10th anniversary of Dave survivng his fall from the sailboat mast. In honor of all this, we have purchased something that we have always wanted, since they were introduced in the early 2000's. It is good that we waited because we now have a 2005 Chevy SSR with a high performance V-8 Corvette engine, which is one that is more desirable than the early models. 


We certainly are causing quite a stir in our community and are getting lots of attention, especially with its bright yellow color. It also has nice pinstriping and custom wheels and running boards. Plus, the rear tires are so large that it looks like it is tubbed (I just hope we don't have to replace those fat tires any time soon). We are looking forward to going to our first car show on Tuesday, but eventually the SSR will be driven back north to join in the summer events up home. It is quite a sight with the top either up or down as a convertible. As an added bonus, the truck bed is about as big as the one in our Sport Trac truck. 



Leave it to us to be diverse. "Life's short, play hard."
