Tween of My Dreams

Our sweet son is now 11-1/2 years old and even though he has one of the kindest hearts I know, he's beginning to get a bit of that tween attitude I hear about. I guess Middle School can do that to a kid. I remember Middle School. I remember being too old to play, but to young to not play. I would hide in my room and pull out my cars and try to set up cities and roads and just play. Some days it worked, some days it didn't. I would end up sitting on the floor feeling so lost.

My Cars



I love cars; I have always loved cars. I don't think in terms of stats like horsepower or torque, I think about the design, the feel, and the sound of a well-engineered car. I'm delighted with a thoughtful interior, or a breathtaking grill. Since I first saw one in 1982, my very favorite car is the Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing from the 1950's.
