We also stopped into one of the local &#8220;touristy&#8221; emporiums to get a couple of <a href=\"http:\/\/vernabob.com\/blog\/2020\/01\/09\/belated-gifts-for-verna\/\">belated gifts for the Damsel<\/a>. The story at the link describes the latter. <\/p>\n<p>On the way toward the downtown end of things we passed this very clean Chevy sedan driving in the opposite direction. Damsel (as she often does when seeing a classic) grabbed her camera and snapped this photo of the early 50&#8217;s Chevy as it rolled by us on Wickenburg Way.<\/p>\n<p>We probably have seen this nice car many times in the past. There are a lot of classics that not only are brought out for our regular car shows, but are used by their owners as a means of transportation in addition to being a classic show car. I can personally think of several of these that are regularly seen around town and not always recorded by a camera shot.<\/p>\n<p>Just a note about the <a href=\"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/2020\/01\/08\/getting-organized-in-2020\/\">computer environment<\/a> here, we are posting this with the new system in place, enjoying the much quicker response times as we edit our work. We still have some more &#8220;cleanup&#8221; to accomplish, but there&#8217;s no hurry as we&#8217;re on RST &#8211; Retirement Standard Time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Thursday was our nominal weekly shopping day, so we found ourselves out of the house and going to both downtown and uptown to visit a&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":190,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[70,84,85,17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7719","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-arizona","category-classics","category-nostalgia","category-photography"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7719","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/190"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7719"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7719\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7719"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7719"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7719"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
