We visited long time friends Jerry and Jo Thomas at Boise, ID. this weekend. We drove over with old friends from Salem, Bill and Joanne Goods. A plaque on the Thomas' wall said something like:
Old friends become New friends when you get old"
We certainly experienced both as we laughed, remembered and got caught up on our lives.
We ate Sunday dinner at the Cracker Barrel (the only one I know of in the Northwest. Went to church together and thoroughly enjoyed our time.
We also visited an air museum at Nampa, ID. Besides some cool WW11 memorabilia and planes (especially a couple P-41's) there was an old car exhibit.
We found a restored 1940 Ford, our dating car and our honeymoon car. We also confirmed the statement that old friends are new friends. Our friendship is deeper, richer, and fuller than it was in 1949.

Sounds like great fun! Old friends do become more special as the years pass. Love the pictures! Thanks for sharing -- Becky :)
I love the pics of you and Mom and the 1940 Ford. Both man and machine still looking good.
