April Fool

Post by Oldav8tor » Thu Apr 01, 2021 6:24 pm

I had a plan today. I was going to drive my T to a dentist appointment in a nearby town and then pull into the local Ford dealer and ask for a free "multipoint inspection". April fools, right? Well, the joke was on me. This is what I saw when I got up this morning. Needless to say, I drove my modern Jeep, not the T. It's supposed to be back near 60° by Sunday so hopefully the snow will be gone by then.

32 years ago today, my bride and I were wed. We are still enjoying that joke and have 4 grandchildren to enjoy it with.

Dad gummit Tim, ain't that the way it goes... Snow when ya want to go cruisin' and mess with people. :)
The folks at The Ford dealer would've LOOKED at you! That would've been neat! Next year.
Happy belated Adversary Day Dallas!

A number of years ago, I was planning to go for a First Day of Spring ride around town.
I awoke to unexpected snow.


I went out anyway.
