Well, I was not expecting to get any cars last Saturday because I was going to the Rozell Family Reunion in Livingston, TX. I knew I had to get up early that morning so I called a fellow collector that was holding my cars for me. I ask him if he could meet me on route to my reunion. Made a quick stop in New Caney to pick up the cars and payed him his money. Then I was back on the road. My Dad called and told me to meet him at Wal Mart in Livingston so he can pick up some pies and I can follow him to my Uncle John's place. Well, me going to a Wal Mart was not such a good ideal for at least my Dad. I had to stop by the toy section to see what they had. Finally found the '57 Chevy Hearse from R17. They disappear quick around my area. We finally made it to my Uncle house and proceeded to the Family Reunion. It was uneventful for me at the reunion because I did not know anybody there. I went basically for my Dad since he was down from Florida to attend it. Did my visiting and went back to my uncles to pick up my car and went home. On the long drive back home I stopped to get get a certain Holiday JL for the collection. It kind of hurt to pay the amount but you will see the reason when I finally start posting the pics....LOL When I finally got home I had my cars that I bought from a member from a different board in the mailbox. It has been awhile for me to get that many JLs in one day. It was almost all JLs. I had gotten the RC Firebird from the fellow collector but I guess the RC can fit in due to the close association with Johnny Lightning and the one GreenLight was in the cars I bought from the sale on the mesaage board which I did not want to leave out because its not a JL. That would be prejudice....lol
