It’s Thursday. The girlfriend and I took the day off yesterday to take the Vette out for a long overdue spin. The weather was great, too. We had clear blue skies with a temperature in the mid eighties—perfect drop top weather.

We did a lot of driving around the Des Plaines, Kankakee, and the Illinois rivers. We have friends that have a place on the Kankakee river, so we stopped out to check it out. They’ve made some changes since we were last out there, like this crows nest with a skeleton pirate up in a tree watching over their house (pictured right). Pretty cool.

Had a great day, got lots of sun, and can’t wait to do it again!

It’s Wednesday. Ahhh! Now that puts a smile on my face! Just take a look at this beautiful 1966 Corvette Sting Ray convertible in Sunfire Yellow. One of my readers found this stunning ’66 parked in his country club’s parking lot. It looks absolutely perfect sitting there bathed in the summer sun. Absolutely gorgeous. I can’t think of a more beautiful scene. You can check out more photos in the gallery below—and thanks for sending in and sharing your photos, Matt!

Hey Keep, saw this beauty at the country club last week. Wish it was mine, but maybe one day. Feel free to post. Keep up the great work! -Matt

It’s Tuesday. I got a text yesterday from a friend asking if I wanted to go see the movie “Nope” by Jordan Peele. I like Jordan’s previous films like “Get Out” and “Us” so I was definitely up for it. I really like Peele’s style, he’s a master storyteller and in this movie he gets your attention immediately. The story starts out with two ranch owning siblings who are dealing with the death of their father, who was killed by strange objects falling from the sky. While investigating the cause, it quickly becomes more ominous. It’s ambitious and weird but that’s part of its charm. You never know where Peele is going to take the story and that’s a big part of the reason I like his work. If you’re a fan of his previous films, then you’ll definitely want to see “Nope”.
