Now Guys:
So, I had to go up and deal with Mini Mafia (a/k/a The Wizard) on my own. You all ducked out on me.
After shoving "Mad Max" (the Mustang "R" - for replica race) into the R&D shop (Ted had pulled most of the other cars out, so Jose, I can report that your GT does still run and it has wheels and tires at all four corners) we went to lunch. My nephew and a cousin (who has a car on order and is agonizing over paint choice) joined in the fun. (Every time I go to lunch with Peter, I always come away with the sense of having watched a shark feeding frenzy). After lunch we drove over to Bristol to look at two "Legend" race cars for sale. Now, Peter already has purchased one for his son, but these were ostensibly for spares and a "guest driver" to be named later. Speaking to him this morning, he seems to have come to his senses and backed away from more of this...
Then we stopped at the Farmington model airplane field to watch a couple of remote control planes zoom around followed by dinner at the "up scale" Chinese (it's in a converted I-Hop) restaurant.
Just another average Saturday up in the Emerald City of New Britain.

PS: I did see the "missing #745", now finally (and sefely) back from Tony's paint shop. It looks gorgeous and there is only a faint lingering smell of dried deer jerky that will soon pass off... I'm sure.
