Today K and I took our newspaper, a snack, some liquid refreshment, and the dog and parked ourselves by the ce-ment pond in our neighborhood. Taking Emma Belle out around people, kids, and other dogs was a bold step for us as she is a notorious barker. She surprised us by being a perfect little lady, behaving herself and even making some new friends. Fortunately we live in a very dog friendly neighborhood, so everyone was happy to visit / pet her.
Feeling brave, we even walked her home via Bishop St, aka "Fun Street". It's a good thing we did, as I saw this immaculate (70's vintage?) Triumph TR6 parked curbside:
*Shhhh.....I'm having a flashback*
Back home now, brownies in the oven, home-made hamburgers for dinner later, then NetFlix movie night. Just about perfect, I'd say. Good evening, y'all. :)

Sounds like a perfect day! The temperature was perfect wasn't it. But goodness, this wind is blowing so hard.
ReplyDeleteTriumph TR6!?!?
ReplyDeleteI love those cars, but with my tall frame I could not even begin to sit in one.
I had that same car (1974.5 TR-6) in British Racing Green from my Senior year of high School all the way through College. I sold it when I got married as I didn't want my wife to get stranded in it.
ReplyDeleteThis one is French Blue.
Loved the car but it required massive amounts of work. I swore off British anything after that vehicle.
I would love to have one for Sunday Drives.
He does need to get the redline radials from Michelin to make it period correct however.
Instant smile on my face!!!
Cheers,
Bobby
Emma looks happy :)
