Violet is the color or romance...

What you are looking at in P1 is true love.  Not of the car, silly, although that does come close, but of two folks.  John & Judy met 50 years ago when John was driving an Easter egg violet Corvette.  Now what young woman wouldn't look twice at the driver?!  This coming February John & Judy celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.  However, to "help them remember" their courtship months, John traded in his Corvette classic & his "regular" Corvette for one of the limited edition 100th anniversary Corvettes.  I must admit I wondered how Corvette could be 100 so I looked it up & it turns out the Chevrolet company that makes Corvettes (in America) is 100 this year.  All 100 of these anniversary cars are black (what happened to violet?).  John & Judy call theirs Stealth Vette.  Who would ever suspect it was used to transport a pizza ring for a rusty old Weber grill?

At 4 a.m. we, or rather the house, waved goodbye to Karol as he made his way back to Maine.  At a more respectable hour, John & Judy left for NJ.  And tonight we wave goodbye to Joe although I, for one, will not be seeing him leave for Florida at 5 a.m.  In the meantime, Joe who totes pistols in Florida demonstrated his air gun technique as we finished sheathing yet another side of the house.  Enough already.  Won't this sheathing & leaving ever stop?!
