This weekend is the “Dream Cruise” here. It’s a weekend where people bring out their vintage cars and cruise on Woodward Avenue just like people used to in the 50’s and 60’s. It’s a pretty big deal, people from all over the country come, along with their cars, just to cruise Woodward.
Katie and I went to the park this evening and then went out scouting for cars. We didn’t go all the way down to the cruise itself, that’s crazy down there, and after all I had the crazy girl with me. Two crazies do not a good thing make. But we found a couple of cars parked in areas near home. And we saw lots more driving by, heading for Woodward. 
So, if you like classic cars, and want to learn more, here’s a link: http://www.absolutemichigan.com/dig/michigan/the-woodward-dream-cruise-a-detroit-classic/

Oh how fun! I bet there are some real beauties there. Better bring some ear plugs though…all those pre-emissons standards cars are sooooo loud. LOL.

Well, I spent five hours at the Back to the Bricks in downtown Flint…..so nice to see so many people coming back into Flint’s downtown. Just like when I was a kid. Many great old cars to look at and admire.

Josh and Jessie hate cars 🙂 They wouldn’t go anywhere near one but I quite like to go and have a look at vintage cars – if they weren’t so noisy.

Dawn, I just reconnected with a high school buddy who just retired from Ford. He recently sent me email with lots of information about the Dream Cruise event, including pictures of some of the billboards that have been put up along the route. Brings back lots of memories, I’ll tell ya. Hope you had fun!
