<VV> A great day at Volo car "Museum"

[J R Read]

The weather was dry and partially cloudy with temps in the low to mid 80s. 
The cars and the people were great.  Over 50 Corvairs - someone else will 
know the exact number - and a few "others" mixed in.  Renewed some past 
acquaintances and made a few new ones.  Oh, guess what...   I met another 
JR.

Family picnic (an annual event of around 50 folks) is tomorrow and my wife 
(Amy) and I are in charge.  Just got in from loading the Rampy with a half 
dozen coolers, folding shelter, seating, charcoal, and an untold myriad of 
other STUFF for the trip to the forest preserve in the morning.  Actually, 
that is not quite correct.

I just completed the "Burma Shave" signs which I post along the route to the 
picnic area.  When I ran out of ones that I could remember from childhood I 
had to go on line to find a book of them.  They seemed abundant and not 
expensive at the time - 8 or so years ago.  Anyway, if you might have an 
interest in that look for a paperback version of "the verse by the side of 
the road".  I'm not sure if Claypool had anything to do with this, but the 
title is all in lower case.
