« on: July 07, 2018, 03:01:36 PM »
Promised the wife a dinner on a coastal restaurant tonight
She wanted to go there in the Galaxie. I dont got the exhaust
completly finnised today, but she thougt it was cool with open pipes
She filmed when i got the car from the parkinglot
The staff from the restaurant came out and lined up on the porch and
Filmed with their phones ;D

The old hwy is fun to drive. But the Galaxie realy need now front springs ans shocks
 I used to test different modifications on mustangs there in the 80s
this time att night there is almost no traffic but you have to watch out for the mooses they start
to move at night to find dinner

Lantjärv ,  Category: Comedy ? Seriously ?  :P ;D

What sort of coastal highway is that with no coast? Here there'd be salt water on one side at least.

Lantjärv is a lake that's to the right of the road and the
whole area is named after that. From 1.22-1.38 we own
the forrest on both side of the road, To the left down to
the coast where i live. To the right we have a gravel pit,
Where there is findings from the stoneage


Here the land rises 40 inch in a hundred years so this road
is at least 5-600 years old so when it first was the coastal high
way it was a coastal highway. From Stockholm to Finland
The new highway was built in the 50,s

Ahhh now i see  how it ended up under comedy i have no clue ;D

Ha, you live about 50' from the coast! Shoulda just roasted a couple hotdogs and set them on the back porch.  ;D
Kidding of course. You have a pretty cool wife, so treating her to a good dinner is a good idea. Especially when she suggests driving the FE powered car without the exhaust. ;)

 ;D ;D I could do it like that..but it isn't right :D
 
Speaking of dinner me and the wife went out in
the little rowboat yesterday . In to the small bay down from
the house, and there is a big flat "mud field" sometimes
under water sometimes dry. I walked there with the dogs
and they started tracking something  so i went over
there and saw the deer tracks and my barefoot tracks....
Wait a minute....i have not walked here. And those are some
big feet's... I'm size 10 and those tracks was 3 inches longer
and sunk much deeper than me...and they tracked the deertracks ???
I backtracked the footprints to see where he had landed with his boat
Nope...the tracks came from the forrest ??? Bigfoot shopping for dinner?

Or just the Estonian guys that's tearing down the neigbour house have big
feet's and are hungry ;D Or the guy that went missing last year ..they have found
one of his shoes so...... ???
