Barrett-Jackson, My First Time…

01/14/2009 Scottsdale, AZ Barrett-Jackson Auction.

What a great place to be with SUPER weather. Cars, cars, cars, cars, cars, cars… You get the idea… No matter what type of car you like, dream about or ? its here,

Its a long day to try and see all the cars, exhibits, food to and things I haven’t seen yet. To REALLY see the whole event takes a minimum of 2 days (and they say the economy is bad!). I saw a new 09? Corvette, no real miles go for about $25k and a (year?) Z28 IROC Camero go for about $14K?

After all the cars I saw today, One is out there for you!

Barrett-Jackson Auction Starts Today!

Scottsdale, AZ. 01/11/2009

I’m not particularly good at word smithing or what some people call reporting. I’ll try and get some fantastic images from this venue. Where I called home for a few decades are getting socked with rain and snow and this may warm them up as well as some other cold weather places.

This is one off the first cars I saw after getting my credentials for the event. Not all is built, the auction starts Tuesday. The list of cars is here.

Whew!!! I’m glad that one’s over!

The year that is. I came to Phoenix, AZ. to visit for a couple of months. That was about November 2006. I had taken a month to take images of “Route 66″. Well, the old health thing started to go backwards. 4 back surgeries (last one 12/29/08) , 2 eye surgeries (so far. I’m not finished yet.) and another hospital visit of about 6 days.

The beginning of this year feels good. I’m not fully physically healed yet.

Hopefully, a New Year, a new outlook and a new website will benefit us all!
