Jerry has the Mad Car Disease or a passion for cars. His mother said he could name the model and year of every car when he was very young.We have belonged to many car clubs over the years, AACA, the old Ford Club, Porsche Club to name a few. Maybe that is why he quit his job as an engineer and went into the car business. We have been to many car shows and outings. Jerry has bought lots of cars, he always says it's an investment. Have met some wonderful people, and some have become long lasting friends.
The Porsche club has a national event every year. We have gone to a few and Jerry became a National Car Judge. We were in charge of the Art Show for the Florida Parade (2003) and have entered some of the Art Shows, where we have sold pieces and won some awards. Jerry won BEST IN SHOW for a beautiful woodturning he did out of a piece of Cedar. Named it "Desert Rose" (Sacramento, California) forgot the year.
This photo was taken in 1998 Porsche Parade (Steamboat Springs, Colorado) - my granddaughter is the mouth on the left. Both the girls will be 18 this year, Ashley's birthday is the 20Th of this month and Sydney's birthday is next month.
The Parades are full of events, a Art Show, Banquets, Concours, Rally, Autocross and one of my favorite is the Social, they have planned trips, this particular Parade we had a Balloon Race that started right next to our condo, what fun.
