    Add more bling

    From Lac Du Batts shoreline.

    This little shiny ring came up today while I was working near Skates Auto Zone in the woods. It has J S on it 's face. I think the S is for his last name Sterling, which is also stamped inside the ring. Below that it has both a left and right turn signal indicator stamped into it also! "◄&►"

    If you're in the market for a car or trying to sell one, check out the Skates auto zone!

    They were just beyond the cleared area you were in near the first homesite out there. A few hundred bottles lay around them but nothing old is apparent, except Skates.

    My first thought ws to call those guys. I'm thinking maybe $15k for that old English ragtop in the front and $5k for the truck.

    These vehicles come as is with folding lawn chair seat, original equipment seats would be your task but they do have a couple dials left! Just up to two rings this year, haven't been chasing the bling yet. Hopefully this week I'll get into that mode.

    There was a strange character near the parking lot playing Steely Dan. But he was waiting for Neil and Mark.

    Thanks guys, but in all honesty, the place looks better than it beeps. Could not figure out that car in front is but it is an English make. Under the hood it was sporting an inline 1 lawn mower engine.
