Attention Motor Heads – Corvettes in Town!!!

Hello, my friends!

I hope you had a wonderful relaxing (or wonderfully active) weekend! Mine was active and not so much relaxing, but still good – I had trouble waking up this morning…

I spent half of Saturday and Sunday cleaning the house while my hubs was working outside. It was so satisfying to have a beautiful and clean house when I was done! And since we didn’t have the kiddos this weekend, it actually stayed clean for a while 🙂

This Saturday was one of my most favorite evens of the year in our town. Several times a year Carlisle turns from a small quiet town into a busy, vibrant place with people coming from all over the country for a car show. Yep, we’re famous for it.

Usually I don’t care much about car shows…unless it is a CORVETTE show!!! Which was exactly that this past weekend. I LOVE corvettes! For some reason they make me feel good – just looking at them 🙂

So after we were done with house work on Saturday, we headed out for dinner – this time to Redd’s Smokehouse and BBQ. Of course it was packed with people who came for the show, but as was any other place in town. The wait wasn’t too long and the staff was SUPER nice. My hubs got a full rack of ribs (of course we needed a box to take home what he couldn’t finish. I mean, come on, it’s a full rack), and I ordered their smoked chicken dinner with sweet potato fries and corn bread. Oh, it was sooooo goooood!

After dinner, we headed outside for the Corvette Parade coming downtown from Carlisle Fairgrounds. The streets were filling up with people very quickly!

And after about 10 minutes, they started coming into town!

Ok, now I am going to shut up and let the pictures tell you the story.

Then the Corvettes parked on Hanover and High St. downtown and we had a chance to walk around and take a closer look at them.

After the show we hit the bakery for some delicious treats!

And that was the perfect end to a perfect day!

Questions of the day:
