Cutlass Supreme!

Ah!
I have the greatest Aunt and Uncle ever!

When I started making plans to come to Calgary - one of the first things I did was put feelers out about borrowing a car.
(for those of you who have never been to Calgary, my darling hometown has one of the WORST transit systems I've ever encountered...even WORSE now that the city is bursting at the seams with it's current boom. So, although I have come to love NOT having a car in Toronto, and enjoy the health benefits...Calgary is a town that you kinda want a car in.)

Karen and Jerry went to work on my little request and came through with and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme!
I LOVE it. It takes me way back....
In my University days I drove a '77 Chevy Impala.
White. Red interior. Build like a tank. (I'm talking about the car...not myself;-)

My Cutlass Supreme:
White. Blue interior. Build like a tank!
I think it might be close to 10ft long!
The weird thing is that this monster of a car has side mirrors the size of my fist (tiny!), AND - the most delicate, slim, lady-like steering wheel I've ever seen. I'm amazed I'm able to move the wheels with it.
It has power locks (that don't work).
Power windows (the passanger window works).
Radio (good)
And - a cassette player!!!!

Now....
All I need is Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians and I'll be set!!!!

Thanks Karen and Jerry!
You're the BEST!
