A SWEET RIDE

Normally I'm not a big car buff. Don't get me wrong, I like cars and would love to be able to pick out any car I wanted, but I know that's never going to happen. I am just not financially in a situation to enjoy that particular pleasure of life. But that's okay as I am and have been blessed in so many other areas of my life.

On the other hand, Janet's Uncle Jerrell is in a situation to enjoy some of the finer things in life including some really nice cars. He owns three 1958 Chevrolet's, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, a 2008 Lexus and the above 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, all in mint condition.

This is one sweet car. Much nicer in person then I can show in the above slide show. 502 cubic inches, 502 horsepower, original interior and one sweet orange paint job. He took me for a brief and VERY short drive in his driveway. Just the three seconds he got on the pedal scared me enough to know that this machine is a rolling coffin in the wrong hands. On the other hands, it would be a fine piece of machinery in my hands. LOL.

Hope you enjoy the show and a little Springsteen.

Until next time,
Chip

A TRIP TO: THE POST OFFICE

This is the first chapter in a series of writings entitled "A trip To". This new series is just a simple overview of a brief trip in my life to "wherever". It may include written word, photos, video(s) or a combination of all three.

Today's chapter is entitled "Aiden and Chip Take a Trip to The Post Office".
The stars of the following video clip are Aiden Hogan with his side kick Chip Miller.

Aiden and I, after some persuasion from my wife, decided to take a trip to the Post Office. The objective was to deliver one of Janet's Avon envelopes. Well I was so excited that Aiden and I were taking the trip that I decided to film the entire "to" portion of the trip. The entire trip from our house to the Post Office only took about 12 minutes, but in an effort to save time, I have doubled the speed to cut the overall video down to about 6:30 in length. We hope you enjoy it. Let us know what you think.



Until next time,
Chip (and Aiden)
