Girls in Cars

Posting early cuz I'm now probably sitting in traffic trying to get out of town for the weekend. :) I won't be around for the holiday, so I've posted more than one pic to make up for not being able to visit. No posts until after the 4th. Everyone enjoy the fireworks!

This week is AUTOMOBILES. Next week is SIGNS.

AUTOMOBILES=
Back in tha' day, I had this great job where I got to write about cars for a major Internet service. They sent me to the Detroit Auto show (Detroit in winter, not fun) and this is me sitting in a Maserati. Yep. A Maserati, people!



This is me and my dream car, a Porsche Cayenne. Any one have $90,000 they want to give me so I can go buy one? Honestly, I wouldn't spend that much on a car if I had it, but MAN did it drive like a dream. We even went 4-wheeling in it. The Porsche guy wanted to prove it 4-wheeled better than the Hummer H2. Only if you're not worried about scratching it. :)

This is me trying to stuff my co-editor into the trunk of a convertible VW Bug (yes, it has a bud vase on the dash) for a photoshoot.

Heh, I like that last photo. There's not a lot of room in that trunk. I should know.

My photo is posted at my "museum of me" blog.

I know someone with 2 Cayennes- but I don't know them well enough to look at the inside of their car. I don't know HOW much money I'd have to have to spend so much on a car. thanks for mentioning the bud vase!

Have a great holiday weekend!
