For the first time since Ian was born I was able to take out the Porsche for an afternoon drive. It was actually not raining and sunny (it's been weeks) and I was able to replace a burn out brake light (more work than you think when a bulb is in place for forty years).
I was also motivated to drive after the wife surprised me with a new book, McQueen's Machines: The Cars And Bikes Of A Hollywood Icon. The book not only covers McQueen's personal cars and cycles, but also goes into the details of every vehicle he's every driven in a movie. Yes, the Bullit Mustang is in there...as are countless Porsches and Triumphs. A good read if you're into that sort of thing.
