Okay, okay, it was just backing out of the garage and back, but it's a big deal to me!

My guess is he failed in the turning of the clock forward.
It is just 1 hour forward, not 1 day.

Congrats. Too cool.

Always rewarding for the first time something moves under its own power

His car so cool and the fact that he is doing it a two car garage in his house just adds to Kurt's legendary status. I hope the book happens soon!

I believe that GRM has an annual list of the most awesome things of the year. I hope they are reserving a spot.

Niiiiiiice. Can't wait to see some more action videos.

I also happened to be looking at your build diary the other day, and the wife walked by, saw the pictures of the baby hummingbirds you have on there, and made that sound girls make when they think something is cute, like that really high whining/squeaking sound, and stole the laptop from me to look at them.

Thanks, guys.

Yeah the pictures of the hummingbirds got far more comments than the car has - wonder what that means...

I guess it would be proper to post a link so hummingbird lovers can see them. The pictures progress from odd to pretty good as I figured out how to couple my camera to the spotting scope. The pictures are in the 18 Feb to 3 March entries.

Sounds like my Sundays! I get Car Talk with Click and Clack after Prairie Home Companion. Sometimes a friend will drop by and I haven't changed the station and they wonder why I have Mozart or Bach on the radio.

I was removing a cam about this time!

"Well, it's springtime in Lake Woebegone, my old home town..and the guy down the street finally got that car he's been building moving under its own power. Slowly and carefully easing down his short, short driveway to the street and back, the promise of fun during the short summer within its grasp.."
