Finally stopped raining
Finally stopped raining long enough to get out and get some pic's. Needed to submit to the insurance company to start my new NCM coverage. Thought I would share a couple.

Beautiful car! 
We've also had a ton of rain here in Northern Illinois. This week looks pretty good . . . except the fact they're predicting rain next weekend. I've been wearing my winter coat when I walk our dog in the morning. It seems more like October than May.

This Thursday is the first local McDonald's show here in Racine. Unfortunately they are forcasting rain again. Damn! Hope they're wrong.
Here's another version of one of the pic's. Decided to play around in Photoshop. The car came out a little too gold, but if I left it natural it blended in too much with the B/W background. Ended up looking like a cross between Sepia and B/W. Guess I'll have to play around with it some more.

Very nice car. Hope the rain stays away and you can get some behind the wheel time.

We really need the rain, but why does it always have to be on the weekends? Been dying to get out and make it to one of the local cruise in's. Did you make it out to Libertyville? Rain obviously kept me away.

Just got back from trying to capture some more pic's down at the lakefront. Damn waves just wouldn't cooperate today. Not quite as rough as yesterday. Was hoping to catch that magic again today only with the sun out. Gonna start going through the camera now. Hopefully there is something in there that I can use.
