Of course had we met an exhuberant cop, we could have all gotten 30 days in the slammer and 90 days suspended licenses for "excess driving".

Likewise Mike, it was good to meet you. You are right about the life expectancy of Dave's cookies As I said earlier they are one of the highlights of our Upstate drives
Think CT & NY were the only plates to be seen and we had no MA plates. Daktruckie had another engagement and could not come.

I posted an abridged version of this on a thread started by Red Stowkay in New England, but felt I should post here as well. It concerns the true history of the following photo:
Aashish: You should have seen him at Hemmings. He was like a kid in a candy store and even got special dispensation to get into one of the cars there
************
Steve, the guy who was in charge of the museum, saw us come in from a bit of a distance. After the Shirt walks in and some idle chit chat, the Shirt drifts away to read about the paint on one of the muscle cars. Steve walks over to the Shirt and the following ensues:
Steve: What are you guys driving?
Shirt: S2000's.
Steve: (looks puzzled)
Shirt: Hondas
Steve: Oh, they didn't look like Miatas
Shirt: No, they're Miatas on steriods.
(Both chuckling for a bit.)
(Shirt knowing Headchef's hood is open)
Go up and take a look.
Steve: Think I could do that?
Shirt: Sure, we wouldn't mind.
Steve: OK, you're in charge, here.
Shirt: Stands near door and collects $17.50 admission (the museum is free) from that family from Mass with the 2 little kids.
Steve: (returning and excited) Boy you were right! Those are nice cars! They are Miatas on steroids! (Both again chuckling for a bit.)
Shirt drifts away to look at outbaord motors.
Jeff: (catching Steve at weak moment, him just having had a S2000 fix) Hey, do you think I can climb into this car? (Note: dialogue a recreation as the Shirt wasn't exactly there to hear it)
*****
Jeff to Shirt: I've got special dispensation to get into the car!
Shirt: It's OK with me. Steve's back, I'm not in charge anymore.
Jeff to Shirt: No, no. This is important, I need you to take a picture!
Shirt: OK, no problem. (Jeff climbing in)
Headchef: That car even has steps!
(delay and confusion)
Jeff to Shirt: What's the matter?
Shirt: Camera's not working.
Jeff to Shirt: It has to work! This is important!
Headchef: What is it with that camera. It's never working.
Shirt: What do you expect. It's a hand-me-down from my son-in-law!
(actually it didn't work for him either and that's why he gave it to the Shirt)
Shirt: Maybe I can get it to work if I blow off some pictures of my children and grandchildren.
Shirt: (Erases 40 or 50 pictures of grand daughter's christening.)
Shirt: Takes shots of Jeff in car.
Next day (today): Daughter Julie to Shirt: #*&$### WHAT, you erased all the pictures of the christening.
Shirt to Molly: Make room in the kennel, I think 'm sleeping with you.
Shirt: I bet this never happens to Zzziippyyy.
Aashish: You should have seen him at Hemmings. He was like a kid in a candy store and even got special dispensation to get into one of the cars there
