Letter "R" -- -- Weekend Roundup
THE EIGHTEENTH LETTER FOR THIS SERIES - The Letter "R" Prompts are: (A) Starts with the Letter "R"; (B) "Rustic" (Tom's Choice); (C) A Favorite; 
These cars belonged to members of our former Montgomery Early Ford V8 Club. From left to right, a 1934 Ford Roadster, a 1934 Ford Three Window Coupe, and a 1932 Ford Coupe. My car, not showing, was a 1950 Ford Tudor. Cars eligible for this club were Ford vehicles regardless of body style or type, i.e. pickup trucks and Mercury cars, etc.
At the right is a better picture of the Restored '34 Ford Coupe. I have sold my '50 Ford six years ago now. I am also about ready to sell my mom's pristine 74 Ford Mustang II as a part of our down sizing. It only has 67K miles, the lowest mileage car we own.
(D) A Lagniappe: I also loved studying Paul's Letter to the Romans from William Barclay' "The Daily Study Bible Series".

Today's Big Rabbit sitting on the bed has lost his respect from the other animals since Mr. Lion has entered the scene.
It is a sample of Rabbits on another page, starts as thus"
"A lady opened her refrigerator and saw this rabbit
sitting on one of the shelves. . . "]

(B) "Rustic" (Tom's Choice): Tomorrow, October 30, is my Birthday. I am becoming Rustic myself, it will be a lucky number a bit shy of 90. Hint, it was "the number" of our Modified Stock 1934 Ford three window coupe Race car, you can search for that.
It was painted baby blue with our number painted on both doors and the sloping trunk. Nothing could show as modified, even the engine, i.e. no dual carburetors, obviously a much newer engine, etc. Trimmed fenders, stronger bumpers, dual exhaust, plexiglass windshields and other window glass removed .

(C) A Favorite: This is one of my favorite toys, the educated Monkey. He is a mechanical calculator, he helped me with my 'Rithmetic in learning my Multiplication Table. His Right foot is to be placed over a number you have and the Left place the multiplier. His board will be showing the answer.
My Educated Monkey is also old, Rustic? He was not new, rather a hand-me-down toy when I was in the early grades studying Math. That would make him well over 100 years old. My son thought that I had lost the monkey and so he found and bought me another on eBay. Now I have two, I ought to be well "educated" also.
I loved learning the basics in grade school, Reading, 'Riting, and 'Rithmetic.
