Saturday was an on water music concert in Stamford on a friend's boat. Pam and I really enjoy music and the bands were really good, as was the food and beer.
Sunday we took the T-Bird to a car show at Quinnipiac University with over 700 cars.
The Connecticut Seaport Car Club went up to the parade in a group and parked together. The condition of most of the cars at the show was incredible. Many looked like they just rolled off the showroom floor.
Monday was a Memorial Day parade in Fairfield. I zip-tied the boat ensign to the wire wheel on the stern of the car and we took up the end of the car club contingent. As we passed a Coast Guard float, I asked if the ensign was the proper size which got a big laugh after a short puzzled pause. After the parade, I got to shake the hand and thank both a Pearl Harbor survivor and a WWII and Korean War vet at a Memorial Day observance.
I'm thinking that I need to buy a flag pole socket and mount it on the rear bumper for future parades. The flag looked good and we got a good response from parade spectators.
Nope, did nothing on the boat project list, but Pam and I had a ball. How was y'alls weekend?
