The Letter "C" ~~ Weekend Roundup and Reflections
My Car List, of all or most all of the cars I have owned
is LAST on this post. Please scroll down to it.
- the Letter "C" Prompts are:
(A) Starts with the Letter "C"; (B) A Favorite; (C) "C" for Calm (Tom's choice); and (D) Reflection(s).
(A) Starts with the Letter "C": Cantaloupes starts with the Letter "C". Our third picture of KP doing the Letter "C" in the song, "YMCA", Body Format. We were in Sprouts of Katy, Texas (our Houston Suburb). KP is our youngest granddaughter.
She had her 10th Birthday Wednesday, tonight she is finishing up her celebration with a sleep-in party with a few other of her friend girls.
This newspaper article called their 1936 a Cabriolet, actually it was a Coupe Convertible. I have about 35 of these Cast Iron Toy Cars and Tractors. Most all are 1:16 scale. The doors open, hoods and deck lids open, and the steering wheel steers the front tires.
