Then, I'm sure I thought they were sort of hoity-toity. Now, looking back, I'm feeling that I was sort of privileged. Also, by an experience of one race on that lake, I was condemned to a life of proligate spending on yachts. Had that addiction not happened, I could afford to retires by now.Doc Häagen-Dazshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00577427442824705257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360557762116828277.post-32195599778313085442011-05-06T19:47:08.836-04:002011-05-06T19:47:08.836-04:00those are some sweet old photos, and I'm sure ...those are some sweet old photos, and I'm sure great memories as well.<br /><br />I've always loved the Karmann Ghia's - almost bought a fixer-upper several years back off a college kid looking for cash, but I was only a few years out of college myself, and not that flush with cash anyway.my2fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457239434851029876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360557762116828277.post-73703863288101176452011-05-05T19:54:21.255-04:002011-05-05T19:54:21.255-04:00Great pics of (your) JW as a young'n. the Nav...Great pics of (your) JW as a young'n. the Navy lid's a nice touch.<br /><br />Furs and German cars...

As it is, I live in a hoity-toity community that doesn't allow you to keep any boats in the yard. Can you believe it? In Rhode Island.<br /><br />So I am restricted to owning only as many boats as Tillerwoman will let me keep in the garage.Tillermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639738519386820997noreply@blogger.com
