Sun Valley

At the end of August (whichever holiday that may be) Anthony and I joined my family, Jerri and the Jones for the annual car auction in Sun Valley. Most years Garth and Nancy manage to come back with at least one car, and the last few years dad has come home with Corvettes. Anthony and I needed a break from small town life and figured it was a win win situation. So everyone piled into the trailer-pulling 'Burban and bounded off to a weekend full of exhaust and classic cars.

Turns out it was a good weekend to go.

Garth and Nancy did in fact buy a car...a 1958 Chevy Impala (the boat if you will), Anthony and I found our dream car (Audi Quattro wagon) and best of all, we "bumped" into Bruce Willis. As fate would have it, old Brucy bought the 'Vette both dad and Garth had their hearts set on. But when a movie star walks up to a car, looks for a second then says to the auctioneer "I'll take it", there's no competing with that. Despite Nancy's best efforts, Bruce would not trade the Corvette for the Impala. So late Sunday afternoon the gang gathered our things, squished into the boat for the ride to the parking lot...and scratched our heads as to how this monster of a car was going to fit into the car trailer.








Oh yes..did I mention a VW Thing is my ultimate dream car?? (Yes Pa, it's so ugly it's cute.)
