Chuck,
Just so it does not appear that everything goes well all the time.
Barbara Ann navigated Saturday at the M. G. 's rally (Silly Chilley
Willey Ralley) in heavy rain. Matilda came in second behind Mike and
Bill Boyles in their 4 seater. Felt kind of bad for the MG folks as
Morgan owners came in 1 2 3, although our president Ted Glover and wife
Bonnie were in their MGBGT, which came in third. Matilda was so angry
from having her top up (found it behind the engine stand) and having come
in second behind Boyles again that she shed her generator mounting
bracket in the driving rain on the way home, again. For over thirty
years same problem, well that and the starter motor. Today, for Boxing
day, things were back to normal, top folded up in the garage again, sun
shining, Matilda going full tilt, great gifts, good friends, and the
Boyles SS finally back on the road restored, after lots of work by Bill
and Judy. Anyway it was a very good weekend, despite having to finish
painting the house Saturday prior to the rains.

P. S. J. D. yes Morgans are fairly high maintenance vehicles. Matilda's
fenders (wings) are cracked again and she needs her interior fluffed up.
Her bumpers do not to need to be polished because they stay in the garage
as she feels that just like a bra they are restrictive and she likes to
run free. When you find a Companion Morgan I hope she can give you the
years of pleasure that Matilda has brought.
