Pump, pump, pump, it up.

Any of you remember that? The shoes that you could pump up? And the commercial had a little jingle that went along with it and they'd sing it and show some guy pumpin' up his shoes. Well, you're in luck because this post will NOT be about some old ass shoes you could pump up! It's going to be more pictures. I can hear the cheers now!
These are the flowers on my pumpkins, I took it this morning, I was so excited when I looked out the window and saw them, the flowers are huge, maybe 3-4 inches wide. I don't know if they will turn into pumpkins or not though, its only the female flowers that get the fruit... What's that you say?? You want more cars too! Well, since you asked so nicely. Here they are..










Well, this car has tiny little tires, I would say they are donut sized. The kind you put on your car, not the kind you eat. The car also has hydraulics, or hydros. I didn't get to see them in action, I was kind of bummed about that. But it was still funny to look at.





I couldn't tell you what kind of car this is, I just know I took a picture of it. And it looks cool. I think its cool that all of these pictures were taken of moving cars (except the Beaumont) and they turned out so good, there are some that didn't and its too bad because they were cool, there was an electric blue Impala that I saw about 10 times and it finally went past me and I got it all in the frame and everything.. But it was just going to fast or I wasn't focusing properly, but I remember it in my mind and it was cool. Well, I guess I should get going, I do have real things to get done. So hope ya'll have a good day.

Mo, Mo, Monday!

Well, I wrote a post yesterday but blogger was being stupid and I couldn't post, and then it wouldn't save it and I was trying to post pictures but it wouldn't load them. It was just an irritating experience. So i just gave up! So I'm back to work (yay) and I ended up forgetting my work shoes, so I'm wearing slippers.. But anyways, vacation was good, the weather was so nice and was only a little hot one day. I loved spending time in the pool, I only wished that it was outside, in the sun. It made me remember how much I like being in the water and just floating around. On Saturday, the B/F and I went to St. Paul for the Car Craft Summer Nationals, another car show. This time it was muscle cars and some hot rod types. There were also a lot of new cars that people were showing off. We hung out down there for a while, it was nice out so it was cool. Not all of my pics turned out very well since most of the cars were moving and some were going faster than others, but here are some of the not blurry ones.
















The one car is a corvette, the other ones I'm not sure about even though I'm sure I asked "what's that one"..This one is called a Beaumont, I have no idea what it is, and neither did my Mom or the B/F. And one guy walked up to him and said "this must be the only one like it here" it was a nice car, beautiful in fact. It was from Canada even. I'll have to Google the kind to see what its all about. Hopefully, I spelled it right. Well, apparently the Beaumont is a Canadian car (imagine that, and its from Canada).

So anyways, I hope you all enjoy the pics, I have more, but don't want to overload your eyes with all these beauties. :P Have a great day!

Too HOT Tuesday!

Holy, freaking hot batman. I think even he would let Gotham City burn if it was this HOT! Let's see, this weekend was also hot, and yesterday was too. Over the weekend I spent time in the garden and went to St. Paul to check out the old cars that were out for Back to The 50's weekend. We did it the free way and just parked along the road and watched them. Here are some of the cool cars that we saw. The red one is a corvette and it has the biggest back tires I've ever seen! You can't really see it in the pic, but when I took the pic I didn't know they were huge until it got up the road, but even though it isn't a great pic I like how its a vette and the flag is flying in the background..





I love old cars, any kind of old car, I mean if its all nice and shiny. Plus, I love the way they sound, new cars are SO quiet, there is no growl, no muscle under the hood. I'd make the noise, but you can't hear it anyways, so its kind of pointless. And I was only going to post a few but I like them so I'm going to post more.

And here are my little pumpkins, which are actually even bigger now, because I took these a few days ago. But I'm still so excited, if you look around the pic you'll see how weedy it is around them, that's why I spend so much time weeding... Well, I guess I should get to work. So I hope you've all enjoyed my pics. See ya later!
