Tell Your Story

      Most people have done some interesting things in their lives. Maybe nothing history making, or things that would make them well known to the general public, but things that you would like future generations of your family to remember about you. That's the reason for my book.

     For a big part of my life, from my teenage years into my 50's, I was involved in racing cars, from the street racing scene to the drag strips, I enjoyed racing my performance cars.  When I got the idea to write a book about my performance cars and racing activities, I thought it would be of interest to other car enthusiasts, and it has been. But in recent years, I wanted to make sure it was something I could leave for future generations of my own family, just to remember who I was.

Timeless Taillights

      When a car company can use a similar styling feature in a particular model of vehicle, for well over fifty years, it can be considered “Timeless”.  That’s the case with the taillights of most models of the Ford Mustang. 

     This photo I have chosen to post today is of my 2015 Mustang GT, in a nice location over looking my home town, here in this scenic area of southern Utah.  As with many Mustang models over the years, it has the traditional three section taillights, and they blink in sequence when the turn signals are used. 

Mustang Monday

      This is always a great day for most of us Mustang fans, it’s another “ Mustang Monday “.  I like to post the best photo examples I can find on my Twitter page. For many of us long time Ford fans, the BOSS 429 is one of our favorite cars of all time. 

     This beautiful photo is perfect example of the type of car that most of us Mustang enthusiasts dream about.  It’s also the perfect color for a “ Blue Monday “.

Twitter Changes

      Over the last few weeks, Twitter has been making some changes to the way they track our activities. They are doing a better job of tracking our likes and dislikes, of the kinds of posts we see popping up on our page. When all this first started, I wasn’t sure if I liked what was going on, but over the last few weeks, I can now see that some improvements are being made. With all the technology available today, it’s easy to imagine that with the right people working on it, things can get better.

Taillight Tuesday Tradition

     There are some images from the past that are permanently fixed in our mind. Some of them from as long as 50 years ago. Some of the scenes from the movie American Graffiti are a permanent fixture in my memories from long ago.

     The style of street racing portrayed by that movie, was a part of my life for many years.  I even wrote a book about it. Anyone interested can find it by following this link;  Grab Some Gears

Ford Friday

      Friday is finally here, especially welcome if you’ve had a stressful week like I’ve had. Time to post a few photos of neat cars on Twitter.  It’s “ Ford Friday “ after all, my favorite time of the week. The car I’ve chosen today is this sharp looking Ford GT, that just happens to be in one of my favorite colors.

     I hope everyone has a great weekend. Don’t worry, winter can’t last forever.  Anyone interested can find my book by following this link; Grab Some Gears

Best of Twitter

      It’s time to remember the reasons we started posting our favorite photos of great cars on Facebook and Twitter. There were many reasons that these types of social media became important to us, and many of our friends, for a lot of years now.  Things were going great, and in the last few weeks, things have begun to change, and not for the better.

     In the past few days, I have seen posts from many of my friends, indicating their frustration with the direction things are going on Twitter.  Many of them are ready to end their association with this social media site. I’m still undecided.  We’ll see how things go in the next few weeks. Have we already seen the  " Best of Twitter " ???

The type of car photo I love to post on Twitter.
