Nice to see blue skies too. Awaiting relief from the excessive heat & humidity which is bad even by Hotlanta standards.

Good times. I really liked the SC cab with 4 different shades of Champagne Yellow :D . The weather really could not have been any better. So many right hand drive VWs. I saw at least five of them. Steve, after you left the brewery I let some little girls sit in my car and their moms took pictures of them pretending to drive. At one point one of them said “Oh my god! If you turn this thing on the door the window goes up and down!!” The other girls were like “Whaaat! That’s crazy! I want to try it!” I don’t think they would have believed me if I told them you had to actually shift the gears manually :P

Jay, that started an education for those girls, next they might even try a landline telephone, or an AM-FM radio.

Last year I had a swarm of little Orthodox Jewish girls in and out of my car. I was surprised how much they liked it. They are not in a car-centric community.

When I tried to explain to my teenage nieces that the phone used to only be attached to the wall in your house and you could not tell who was calling when it rang they just stare at me like they could not imagine such a barbaric existence. J
