Car Collectors Converge

Yes, it's that time of year again when my hubby parks his toocus on the couch to watch the Barrett-Jackson auto auctions telecast from Scottsdale, AZ. This thing started Tuesday and goes through Sunday. Some of the prelim vehicles auctioned off aren't as cool as the ones you'd see Saturday, but so far, it looks like a couple Corvettes sold for over $100,000. They had a cool Amphicar (that car/boat thing) sell for over $124,000 last night. John and Freddy have talked about going to the auction some day... maybe they'll go to the one in Palm Beach this March. It's smaller than the AZ auction, but I'm sure the cars are just as cool.

Tonight, some co-workers are getting together to stamp (make cards and maybe scrapbooking) . I'm not sure exactly what I'll be making... maybe just playing around with the new stamps I purchased through Mary that came in yesterday. It was almost like Christmas around here with everyone excitedly opening and reviewing their purchases. Hopefully I'll have something cool to post when I'm done.

If you're not doing anything this Saturday, make sure to check out the Speed Channel for the car auctions. I believe it pretty much goes all day long... check your local listings. Your mileage may vary.
