The Strong Man & The Smart Car






There was a Smart Rally in Europe last month. Part of the festivities was a Strong Man demonstration. They pulled a string of 5 Smarts!


Another competition involved lifting a Smart Car full of people.

Neighbors?


This Smart Car is owned by Meghan & Dave Thiele from Scottsbluff—which is just about 300 miles west of us. I wonder if they might be coming to Grand Island for the State Fair—we could have lunch!

Steak Dinner!


We had dinner at Texas T-Bone last night (well, actually just John & Rae got to eat—I had to wait outside).
John’s favorite dinner is steak, so they like to go there. After eating, some of the staff came outside to see me!




This is the big bull (he has a name, but I’ve forgotten) outside in the Texas T-Bone parking lot. He’s all prettied up for the State Fair in two weeks.
The owner of the restaurant says it’s very important to remember all of our military men and women, so he always has a sign on the bull honoring specific ones in our community. He also sponsors special care packages to be sent overseas at Christmas time.

One Limo, Two Limos, One Smart


I ran across two limos this weekend. They were parked near a flower shop--not doing anything. Perhaps they were resting up for a run on Saturday night? Sure makes me feel tiny!

Cat Mobile in Maine


Rae's niece in Maine sent some pictures of a cute little “Cat” Smart that is at the Knox County Humane Society in Thomaston, Maine.




The car goes to Parades and recruits volunteers for the Humane Society. I hear she gets lots of attention. If I'm ever out there I'll be sure to stop and say hello!
