The North American
International Auto Show is a site to be seen around the country, but in
the Detroit area it is a chance for the millions of local auto workers
that live here to see what they may be producing and take pride in their
company's name. Every year in January, the Cobo Center hosts the Detroit
version of the Auto show and every year well over a half million people
make the trip to the venue to take in the glory. This is a show for
everyone, even the little ones. This years event took place from January
19 thru January 27th. It was a week of beauty, style, and concept. If
you are a people watcher there is something here for you. If you are a
car aficionado this is your dream, and if you are just looking for your
next vehicle this is the place to start.
I learned from him that the Hatch Valley
once had a volcano erruption and the hot lave might be what made the
chile taste so good. One thing was for certain, the best chile is
planted and harvested in southern New Mexico.
He stutters
a bit and is silent as his truck slows down to ten miles per hour. Amery
hands a knife to Skip, who puts it next to his groin area. The car
stops, they both are thinking, looking at one another, their eyes are
not blinking, you can see the hairs of their eyebrows as if the eye is
attached to it, the lower lip of the eyelid is almost stuck to the
eyebrow from staring, --they're listening to the waves, for that is the
only sound now that is optional, except the humming of the truck motor,
the waves of the of the Great Lake Superior seem to be upon them .

Chloe
was born on March 22, 2012 my second granddaughter. She has been a
blessing to me since the first time I saw her beautiful face. I am
graced with the ability to work form the comfort of my home, however, my
son has not been that fortunate. He is a welder and works 3rd shift so I
volunteered to be the nanny and take care of the baby while he and his
wife both worked. At 43 and having an 11 year old of my own, this life
checkpoint sort of threw me for a loop. The dark
figure standing, staring by the street, is noticed by the two men in the
front seat of the truck, they stare but keep going, --trees blowing to
his right and left, the waves of the Great Lake of Superior, makes a
humming sound, and everything else, as if you were in the middle of a
hurricane, the stranger stands erect yet, never moving. He sees the eyes
of the passenger in the Ford-truck, a small figure, a man of about
forty, the driver calls him Skip, and he hears that. The taller man at
the wheel, his arms are solid, and frozen to the wheel, is called Amery,
for some reason you know he knows that.
There were three major car
manufacturers. Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. Each manufacture had a
following. Arguments could erupt over which car was the best. A man's
Dodge pickup was a source of pride. Sunday morning the family would
dress in their best clothes and get into a Buick for the trip to church.
The Cadillac represented power and money while the Ford and Chevrolet
represented the working people. People that lived in the country had a
buy truck nuts. It was a working
truck and on Saturday's the kids jumped in the back for a trip to
town. My
experiences at the Shadow Bar occurred more than forty years ago, but I
still wonder if I should have reported the incident when I returned to
Engineers Hill. Ford is a trusted name across the globe. F-series
from Ford have been really popular. These are pick-up trucks and are
used for both driving on rough lands or soft city roads. Out of the
many, F 150 has been extremely accepted. It has been around for years
now and is still ruling the markets. These F 150s can be protected and
styled with the help of a variety of accessories such as brush guards,
headlights, fog lights, spoilers, etc. These accessories not only
improve the look of the car but are also functional. The PC is
no longer the only way of accessing the Internet. We now have PDA's and
cellphones that can access the Internet, and send and receive e-mail. By
this time next year, as more people learn the use and benefit of these
devises; anything needed to maintain and restore these Classic Car
investments can be obtained while driving down the road.
