I realize in the John Carpenter movie adaptation of the Steven King novel “Christine” they used a 58′ Plymouth Fury but this 57′ Chevy is just “Bad to the Ba..Ba..Bone” also.

Alamo Auto

I found this car in Alamo NV just before I lost my own car. OK, Joe. I want the year, make and model. And anything else you can come up with. Anyone is free to join in. Give me your best guess. There are no wrong answers as I have no idea what it was and will accept any response! (Is that a sneaky way to get comments? You bet.)

Votes for Women!

Election day in the US is just 4 days away and in honor of my last post before the big day, I thought I’d share a photo of a gift I received after entering the race for the Virginia House of Delegates.

LMA from Suffragette Kitty has become an incredible WordPress friend and supporter of my campaign.  She is a passionate feminist and supporter of the Women’s Movement, and I love her writing.  Early in the campaign, LMA sent me this collection of items from Orchard House, the home of Louisa May Alcott.

“In the days before the 19th Amendment, a wealthy Newport socialite ordered a tea set emblazoned with the phrase “Votes for Women” to make a point to the influential guests who often dined with her. The Alcotts were ardent supporters of the women’s suffrage movement, and today we offer replicas of this tea set and other items bearing the “Votes for Women” motto” (from the Museum Store catalog).

Greenwich Village

NYC World Trade Center from Sullivan Street in Greenwich Village

It’s amazing how many streets in New York City yield views of One World Trade Center. This is Sullivan Street in Greenwich Village, just south of Washington Square Park.
