Me and Paul

While in Minnesota I met up with my old buddy Paul Gertsen.  He was gracious enough to take the day off and show me around his stomping grounds.  We went antiquing in this neat little town where he had great success for many years.  He was so cool that he even tried to give me dibs on anything we found.  He’s a helluva guy and always has been.

We had barbecue and a beer right on the Mississippi River and then walked around a local car show afterward.  He was attracted to this Plymouth Gold Duster for some reason, ha.  I’m a Chevy guy myself.  What a fun afternoon.

Here’s a picture of my ’55 before kids, a mortgage and no time relegated her to a storage unit.
