More From The AACA Automobile Museum

 I shared pictures of the cars on display at The AACA Automobile Museum in Hershey, Pa. here.

They had a lot of "special exhibits" that I did not include in my initial post that I am sharing today.

The Faces of Valor had this car on display and it was one of my favorites.

The foundation uses this rod to promote its work and to raise funds supporting fire, police, 

EMS first responders and military service veterans. 

The Buick's patriotic red, white and blue colors 

contains the faces of 43 first responders and veterans who have died during their service.

This was my favorite car...

hero's all of them.

They also had a recreation of a Drive-In Movie Theater...this was so cool.

I am old enough to remember going to a drive in movie and I also remember how much fun it was.

Who remembers this?

Hooking this contraption onto the drivers side window so you could hear the movie.

Floinn Cafe

A pay phone that you dial?

There was a Jute box on display...

if you look closely you can see the names of the hits from the 50's through the 80's.

Atlantic White Flash Motor Fuel

A Miami Motel

Sand Beach Covered Bridge

1897 Aldrich

Is an extremely rare car, one of a kind, gasoline powered automobile.

It is a small, lightweight auto buggy.

It is recognized as one of fewer that 300, gasoline powered vehicles, in the United States in 1897.

You know the drill...if you are in the area, I highly recommend you go.

Bits And Pieces

The weather here continues to be a surprise each day when you step outside the door.

It was 90 degrees here last week and we needed air conditioning.

This week we are in the low 50's and we are using the heat.

The weather people are calling it "weather whiplash"...that's perfect for what's happening right now!

Much of the same unpredictability has been seen in the skies.

We've also had a few days where the skies looked like this.

I am not sure if the Egrets left for the winter, I think not, I have been seeing a lot lately.

If you look closely around it's eye, 

green is beginning to emerge and that indicates it is getting ready for mating season.

My Catbirds have returned for the summer, and I could not be happier.

They always remind me of my friend Theresa, "texwisgirl", a blogging friend I miss dearly.

The Catbird was one of her favorites.

Our Cherry Blossoms are beginning to fade...

here are a few pictures I took a few days ago when they were at peak.

Now I will look for a nice pink carpet laying underneath, it always makes for a great picture.

On April 2th, 950 drones created a full-scale, illuminated silhouette of the RMS Titanic 

over Belfast Harbour to mark the 114th anniversary of it's sea trial.

Did anyone else see this on television? It was quite amazing.

I made this omelet for breakfast yesterday.

One egg and mayonnaise, blended until smooth.

I added a few spices, cooked it one minute in the microwave and topped it with green onions.

You can read the official recipe here, this was really good, light and fluffy.
