It was a nice vacation, thanks. Very relaxing and fun too since we took the 67 with us this time. We spent some time near the Mackinaw Bridge area and attended the St. Ignace car show there. The weather couldn't have been better.
Have a great time dining at "Bistro Province". Sounds fancy! laugh

So Medicare and retirement........ I guess your only twice my age, unless your talking about early retirement! You still feel young though, right? Happy B-day!

Thomas
Vielen Danke

Terry
thanks!

John,
yes, I gave much advise to Mr Daimler and Mr Benz, fortunately they didn’t listen...lol

Lee,
well, before there was dirt , there was only cr#p...not a pretty sight! Us old folks made that cr#p into dirt, for your benefit! lol

Harry , FL67, 68 Firebird 400, Wouter and Kerry
Thanks, much appreciated!

Gary,
You should have sent her down here, she would probably have enjoyed my company better...lol

Mark,
no pictures on this menu...nice, small, cozy place, filled to capacity, two musicians that played guitar and violin , old French Music mostly, some other stuff too, like “greensleeves”, and no lid on the wine glasses!
And the Red,White and Blue banners everywhere, almost American!

and Tom (Banshee)
thanks man , great 'old' song....but of course in my mind that’s that “new” band , the Beatles! lol
