ROYAL OAKS NURSING & REHABILITATION - 1ST CAR SHOW

 We took part in a car show at Royal Oaks Nursing and Rehabilitation in Urbandale.  It was a first for them and the weather was perfect for it. The residents were able to come out and enjoy 20+ cars/trucks and have ice cream and popcorn.  It's the best reason to have a car show and we look forward to them doing it again.

Gary and Sandy x 2 made for a nice visit.

SUGAR SHACK #1 - 2025

 Nice weather and a great crowd.  The Moburgs were out in force. Parking wasn't as easy.  More cars and less saved spots.

Russ didn't think he was in the picture, so he got IN the picture 😂


Nice stretch of vehicles


A Plymouth pickup is rare indeed.  I didn't find out the year.  Essentially a Dodge with Plymouth badging.  They were produced from 1937 to 1941.  This is a 1939 to 1941.

I was finally able to move Mary Lou to the main strip.

BENNIGAN'S #2 - 2025

 Really a nice evening.  Low humidity and in the 70s.  We got there around 5:10 and still places to park but it did fill in. Allen saw us heading that way and ended up parking next to us.  He was nice enough to get some pics of us which we always forget to do.  Gary was there and Walt and Marie arrived in style in their 1956 Buick Century (says that right on the grille😀).  Dean Archer brough yet another car...his beautiful 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor sedan.  We sat with Skip and he got volunteered into purse watching duty.  I met Scott Longstreet who was asked me what the deal was with my King's Food Host shirt.  Turns out he came to Christ at 18 years old at the Kings location on Douglas near our house.  He brought his 1953 Ford pickup (next to Skip) and he also owns a 1950 Ford Business Coupe.
