Morning guys. A little cool this morning.
My wife threw an extra blanket on the bed last night.
Looks like a nice today and clear so far for tonight's show.
It does cool down real quick once the sun goes down.
Time for Wheels Up Friday

Hi guys.
Well we have a bit of rain at present. Shouldn't last too long by the looks of it so hopefully the show will go on.
Other than that is been nice.
This afternoon this little guy about 3 yrs old went walking past our place by himself.
We knew who he is as he has wondered off by himself several times.
He had gone past our house and crossed the road and went down another street.
I went after him and took him by the hand and back to our house where I called the cops.
This had gone on before back in the winter. There he was standing in the middle of the street with a jacket on but not zipped up and no gloves. I called the police and they came and got him and took him home.
So today when the cops were about to arrive the mother comes out only wrapped in a towel and took him home.
She said someone was supposed to be looking after him.
But we told the cops what happened and they went to their house.
This is the 4th time he's wondered off. Thank goodness he hasn't been hit by a car or kidnapped.
I told the cops Children Aid should be looking into this.
Kids don't ask to be brought into this world but he's yours so take care of him and appreciate what you have.
Have a great day

Long time ago when I was driving city transit bus in Winnipeg, I was heading down a very busy arterial street in afternoon rush hour, chilly late fall day, with a full busload of people, when a boy of about 3 or 4 years old came running off a side street and nearly ran into the side of the bus.
I immediately stopped the bus and opened the door with the intention of getting him into the bus, but he just jumped right in before I got out of the seat. I paused for a half minute or so to see if a parent was following, but not a soul in sight, so I quickly called the operations center and carried on my route. The operations center called the police and 2 patrol cars plus a transit supervisor met me within 15 minutes to pick up the boy. He had apparently snuck out of the house when his mother was in the bathroom, and was returned to her.

You guys are great. Thanks for being there.
 
I had a granddaughter that was and escape artist, no amount of locks / latches on the door could keep her from going outside.
I would go up to the garage, and within 5 minutes she would be up there with me, I had 6 latches just on the outside screen door, and she figured out how to get them open.

I had a local officer come up and do a vin number check on a vehicle, the car was sitting in my back yard, he had glanced over at out back door and started laughing, and said I guess you have a little one that likes to get out, with the amount of latches on that door. I said yes, and so far, she has never took off, but she can get out.
 
Morning guys.
Well, the show got washed out last night. It was supposed to clear up but Mother Nature had a different idea.
Today will be great around 19c all day and lots of sun.
Going to try and be there for 11. It officially starts at 12 but it will fill up fast.
The gates apparently will be open at 10.
My phone is charged and I have a battery pack as well so should be taking a lot of pictures.
Have a great day guys, I know I will
 
Morning guys.
It was an excellent day yesterday with over 800 cars at the show.
Biggest crowd ever.
Couldn't have asked for a better day weatherwise.
Sure was a long day and was tired when I got home.
Here's a few pictures
