Hot Rods

We are a family of hot-rodders. We own a muscle car and we love taking it to car shows every summer. Our favorite one is the Goodguys Heartland Nationals in Des Moines. It's always held on or near Independence Day and this has become our new 4th of July tradition.



Here's a shot I took from the aerial tram looking down on one of the streets. It is street rods as far as you can see, it seems. We heard there were nearly 3500 cars attending this year! There's always cool stuff to see, like this. This was one of the picks for the Winners' Circle.
Check out this cool tricked-out bus. That's a surfboard on the top. That's one of my little dudes in the picture.
A custom-built truck. It even has a DVD player in the dash. Sweet!
Here's my other little dude. He thinks attending car shows is exhausting. That's what we're actually doing today. Attending a car show. This one isn't so far away, only about 45 minutes or so.

Peace. FF
