Grilled cheese sandwich with apple slices and bacon between layers of Asiago.

Pot of hot black coffee.

Norman Garrett's article on sports cars.

That's all, carry on.

I don't get the apple part. But game on, I suppose.

Shouldn't you be building a Challenge Car or something, you know, useful there?

Damned retired guys think they've earned the right to put their feet up and do jack-all....

Glad you're enjoying retirement. :)

The apple goes in the sandwich.

Good article by the way. Rear radiator in a Miata, huh?

I was certain that this would be a thread about Mazda rotary engines. I am disappointed.

His thoughts on rear seats in sports cars had me laughing.

Glad I wasn't eating at your house. I'm not a fan of grilled cheese or apples.

Breakfast is a pork (sausage/bacon/both) and chicken (eggs/runny) meal with a little ground corn (grits) on the side and followed by toast and/or biscuits. Coffee, hot, strong, sweet, light; it should be thick enough to hold up the spoon.

Oh, and glad you are enjoying retirement. I'm looking forward to your next round of pictures.

Next pics will probably be of my "winter project" boat that is almost finished. I've been looking for another project.

Retirement's good so far, lets see what happens when I'm cooped up during the bitter cold times. I tried to save some chrome polishing or pin striping for next to the coal stove in the basement, couldn't.

No, 55+ golf carting Florida is not in the cards!

Come on now, you're supposed to do a build thread on those projects.

I'm winding up my boat project now, probably only a few more days work till it's done. I'm still not sure exactly what's going under the knife next. I get fatter and lazy if there isn't something to drag my ass out of the house on weekends and evenings. It'll probably be another boat, all wood and from plans. The boys want to build kayaks, so maybe that.

I know I'm probably not a reliable source of info but... word on the street is people like jet kayaks cobbled together from old jet skis. How cool would it be to finally go up the whitewater?

Glad you're enjoying the issue. It was a pleasure working with Norman--and, yes, we're already discussing more features for you guys.
