What a great day! The sun is out and I got to sleep in until 7:00 AM. Tina was up early though and put up some birthday decorations. When I got back after taking the kids for their regular morning walk in the park, Tina was preparing a special Birthday Breakfast celebration (French Toast using thick sliced Banana Walnut Bread), followed by a box of Russell Stover Chocolates, a new CD and a bag of Hershey Kisses. What a great way to start the day!!After breakfast we drove up to the Del Mar Fairgrounds for the opening day of the Good-Guys Hot Rod and Custom Car Show (http://www.delmarnationals.com/)!! We got there around 11:30 AM and spent the next three hours wandering around hundreds and hundreds of absolutely stunning customs, restorations and street rods. Talk about eye candy, it was incredible. I never imagined having this many old cars all in one place at one time. It was a truly edifying experience. Fortunately we left the checkbook at home - heheheh!!
Finally my drool bib couldn't take any more so we wandered back to the car for the drive home. Wee got back about 3:30 PM and took the kids for a long walk. When we got back Tina started preparing my special Birthday Dinner (Gumbo made with shrimp, sausage and chicken) followed by a moist chocolate cake with candles. And of course another present, a new Perlizumi Bicycling Jacket! Tina really did a great job and it was one of the nicest birthdays I've ever celebrated. Of course having my special love and closest friend to share it with made it that much more fun. Having great food and presents was nice too, but it's just so cool that we have a great time together. I'm really one lucky guy!!
