riding casually through a corner of 1968

 I have a friend who owns a 1968 convertible.  This morning I dropped my children at soccer camp for the day, and drove to her house with my head scarf on.  I knocked on her door and said "Good Morning Thelma!  It's me... Louise, and I'm here for a drive."  She grabbed her keys and off we went.  Honestly, it was a perfect morning for a drive, and the perfect way to reclaim a tiny bit of 1968.

    If you hadn't said the pictures were of today I would have totally thought they were from yester-year. They even have the nice yellow lighting.
