I a few minutes I'll be off the start grilling NY strip steaks :D and have a beer .Since I'm an employee of the City of Chicago I had the day off with pay. So what did I do T-bird related? I dusted it off because I drove it yesterday and it was *dirty* (ok it had a light layer of dust on it). Now you all know I'm nuts Quote Selected

Happy 4th (patriotic tbird progress) Reply #10 – July 05, 2007, 08:38:50 AM Happy 1st!:hick:The wife and I took Coira and her cousing Dalton to a local outing. It was an event with lots of games and inflatable rides (if you can call them rides) for the kids, consesions, and a permanent stage setup in an old hay field. Free. We heard a few acts, (one was one of our clients and his four kids doing some popular radio stuff), and watched some highland dancers before the rain started to pour.We later went into town to see the fireworks display on the University grounds. We had the second largest display in Nova Scotia, after Halifax, and it showed. We were all very impressed. Quote Selected
