Glorious day with the vagabonds

Post by Dropacent » Sat Oct 02, 2021 1:13 pm

A bunch of old guys with old cars………No jobs, no money, no prospects, and nothing better to do. They stopped by ,got me out of the shop for a couple hours, and thrilled with the day. Probably nothing better than enjoying the backroads around these parts, just following the tailight in front of you. Thanks for the nice day, and hope you’ll have me another time. Thanks, left to right……. Tom, Art, Tim, Jim and especially Champ, the leader of the group. I followed in a modern car to pick up parts to resell that fell off. I came home empty handed!

It WAS a real great day Tim 1!! Glad you hosted us at your wonderful vintage residence (pic enclosed, and gotchya!) and enlightened us about your great collection of Edison phonographs and the like. (Forgot what the piano player/violin machine was called!)
Sorry we didn't leave you any parts to sell!! Any tour that we don't leave parts on the road, AND make it back home is a good tour! :lol:
Good pic of Champ our club mascot too!

Tim M. It was a real pleasure to tour your home and shop. Champ says he will come back any time, thanks for posting the great pictures. This had to be one of my best trips all summer. Jim & Champ

People like this are to be avoided. They will only lead you astray.

Brent,

I have tried Mapquest and Google Maps with no luck. Can you tell me where Astray, OH is located. I'd like to visit. :-)

Very true Henry! Long ago I had a fantastic part time employee, Jack of all trades kind of guy, his favorite line was. "Old age and treachery shall overcome youth and skill"! I think he was right.

My map shows Astray being just west of Bad News, on the way to
You Should Know Better ! All in the general area of Wasted Youth
and Hooligan City. If memory serves, my mother told me so.
