SENTIMENTALITY

Had a 1969 Sunbeam Alpine GT from 1969 until 1977. It was comfortable, reliable, and got good gas mileage. Unfortunately, British workmanship at the time was not the best - the engine leaked oil from day one and I never could stop it.

Wonderful memories.

A HAPPY VISIT

GRADUATION DAY!

LISA'S TOMATOES AND SQUASHES

Aaron's tireless protectress -- and ever-patient pillow and sufferer of baby hugs.
