My wife and son gave me a few gifts this morning. My son picked out the Hot Wheels cars at the grocery store. My wife said she actually had bought the shirt prior to the purchase of the Mustang. She missed out on the “Just One more, I promise” car T-Shirt she wanted to order.
I’m pretty excited about that Lego Creator Mustang, too. I have the VW Bus and Beetle, and those were really fun to build.
Full size Mustang update, I’ve got parts en route. Brakes are ordered and will be here in a couple of days, steering kit has arrived (idler arms, tie rod ends, etc) I’m still deciding on my suspension plans, but I did find a set of new 1” drop leaf springs in my neighborhood for sale, I’m just waiting to hear back from the guy that has them.

Your boy made some solid choices.

My wife won’t let me get any miniature cars, she says I have big ones and that is enough.

He sure did! He keeps bugging me to go get some safety glasses so he can help work on the Mustang. I need to do that for him.

Once I get the Lego built, I’ll have to figure out somewhere to display it.

After months of borrowing my daughter’s Bluetooth speaker for working in the shop, she bought me one of my own. It’s fairly loud and has a battery big enough to run for 16 hours or charge my phone up and run for some time less than that. My son got me another sun shirt and some fancy smoked salmon to enjoy. I always wear sun shirts while working outside. Grandma had skin cancer and I want nothing to do with that.
