Drove it!
Wife wanted to go on a date night. Went to one of our favorite farmer owned restaurants in a town about 20 miles west of here, then decided to get ice cream at a Culver’s about 10 miles north of us. On the way we had to drive past an Indian effigy mound way up on a hilltop. I hike this place for exercise, but my wife had never been there, so I took her to the top, where there’s outstanding views. It always reminds me of why I got the heck out of the city! Then on to Culver’s for a concrete mixer! Put a hair over 60 miles on the ‘55.

Concrete Mixer is basically frozen custard with Oreo, Heath bar, Reese’s, M&M’s or a number of other things mixed in. I didn’t stick to my healthy retirement diet today.

Oh I seee or feel the mix! Amazing the neat things about our nation in the different areas. Being from Latrobe and delivering Stricklers newspaper yes the banana split family,I ate banana splits as a kid still do. It was easier to get rid of the calories then than now.

While driving the’55 yesterday, I had a clunk while going around a couple corners. Sounded exactly like when a front sway bar link snaps in two. Nope, those look pretty new matter of fact.
Looking around I found the bushing totally missing, and some witness marks. That’ll do it! Looks like Ames stocks em. I’ll call in the AM.
