OK, you know that Bart is an out of the ordinary guy...or at least most of you know that! LOL!

I had this HUGE box delivered by the UPS on Thursaday, our 4th wedding anniversary. Now I really wanted to open it, but being the GOOD girl that I am, I resisted!

So as soon as he got home, we exchanged gifts.

In this huge box was.....drum roll please...a complete Drive In Speaker pole, with two WORKING drive in speakers attatched! I was dumbfounded! We had seen these ACTUAL speakers on our trip to Ohio, and I was just enchanted! We both LOVED the old drive ins, and I wanted that speaker pole/speakers so bad, but how the heck do you carry something like that home when you are driving a 1959 Corvette...you don't!

And here my super husband hunted the internet and found this special gift for me! Is he great or what!

So after that happy event, we headed out to El Azteca and ate Mexican, washed down with a pina colada for him and a strawberry daquiri for me!

Now I am wondering what he will come up with for our 5th anniversary! LOL!

That is so cool! How sweet of Bart to remember how much you wanted that. Ah! The nostalgia! Weren't the drive-ins the best? Only a few left in our country, I think.

Where will you put it? Hugs, Cappy

Cappy, right now it is in our living room! LOL! Have NO IDEA where I will put it at the moment, but eventually we want to have a Diner Type room, where we can put all our nostalgic type stuff....you know, the Lava lamp, my Facination game, the soda fountain stuff...we really want to do all that someday.

No wonder my dgs likes to come stay with us! LOL!

Char that is a wonderful gift, and to think that Bart came up with it too.

I love that , but am wondering how you will work it in to your home deco.

I think that is so unique, but then so is he, so guess it figures!

Hugs, Lor
