I sat on the front porch last night recalling the days from my past, remembered that blue 67 camaro with the 327 and how I LOVED to drive it fast. {catch me if you can...} She screamed like the wind when I put the hammer down and all the guys watched when I cruised around the town. The tough guys all asked when I pulled into that old bar what's a sweet girl like you doing with a fast cruisin car? Then I'd just laugh and smile as I said "Don't you know that old saying is true, some of us young wild eyed girls like driving fast cars too." In silence I sat and thought about all of my old crazy ways, thinking about those times oh how they were the good old days! Yeah, those days of yesteryear I surely still am missing, as I sit on the front porch rockin'.....and reminiscing....

Pat sometimes the memories are just so much fun. Thanks! Toe, you not only flatter me but you make me smile! Thank you. I'm not that young! (well in my mind I am...) I loved that car though...gave it up for a chevelle with a 4 barrel holly carb, but the Camaro was my joy. The driving fast thing though...... that never changes even though my age does! Have a great day Toe! Keth I do the r and r thing alot now. ah but a gal can always dream though right? Hugggs "When we're torn apart, |

Too, too delightful, even if you're a long way from the 'rockin' and reminiscing' of the guy in the graphic. The words and rhyme are charming and the message as well. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Donna My joy was my 56 chevy. The tocking chair of memories should never go out of style. It's one of those things you can always depend on. Thanks for sharing yours. |

I love this, Donna. Makes me think about my black areocoupe SSMonte Carlo. They only made a limited amount of them in 1987...just enough for Dale Earnhardt (#3) to drive it in Nascar that year. The first two speeding tickets I got in my whole life were the ones I got in that car. That car would go SOOOOO FAST. I loved it. Pretended I was on the race track a lot when I drove it. HaHa!!

Mine was a 1967 Pontiac GTO, black on black, with dual exhausts. Memories are nice, making new ones, even nicer. Enjoyed this, Donna. *hugs* The stars will shine when I am gone, |

Haha...those were the best of times, I would love to still ride in one of those '67 Camaros with my friends, or one of those Silver Thunderbirds like Mark Cone sung of. Best wishes and tidings to you! Stanley Climbfall |
