THERE’S MORE TO LIFE THAN GARDENING

May 18, 2014 By Holly 2 Comments

Sorry Gardenistas…but this summer maybe I should add to my posts a few SANDPOINT I LOVE YOU stuff. Yeah. Maybe I should add Northern Idaho Cool Stuff as a category.

Yesterday was LOST IN THE 50s car show.  Oh my goodness. Gorgeous cars!!! With super duper {garden} colors too!  Hmmm…why on earth would I be thinking like that?!? Silly me.

But what a fun time checking all the classic cars out. Let the show begin…

My high school best friend’s sis had this car.  Oh I thought she was the luckiest girl! A Mercury Cougar!

And this……..this was MY FIRST CAR……a ’68 Camaro…..but in green.  Um yeah….. I bought it when it was 20 years old.  Hehe.

IMG 8196

Loved this car! Wish I still had it.

A  Shelby Mustang……oh Mr. Denim would have loved this car!  But he had Camaros too.

Don’t remember what this was this but red is a wonderful color!  Maybe a GTO?
