Between Antique Fire Engines, 16,000 toys, and a French Laundry, our trip from Mackinaw City to Fenton, MI, proved to be fascinating and fun. We have plenty of pics to share, but those will have to wait for at least a day.
Happy Mother’s Day MOM!

I’m sure there’s a story behind it, but I fear we’ll never know why a sailor was driving a CJ-3A and pulling a stage through a neighborhood.
“Original vintage snapshot photo, circa 1940s or 1950s. Sailor at the wheel of a Jeep, pulling a trailer that looks to be a stage – “When The Rains Came.” We do not have any details about the location of this photo. Some minor age toning, otherwise a nice image- as seen in scans. Measures about 2-3/8″ x 3.5″

“VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:

Hi all. We had a temporary technical delay. Something was gnawing at the sites resources. I suspect bots are attacking . . . again.
We are just entering St. Paul. After an absence of jeeps for the last two days, we finally spotted a CJ-2A perched on the hillside along I-94. More on that tomorrow.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
(08/13/2012) This appears in good shape.
“A military icon of the 19th century, this W.W. II Style jeep manufactured by Willy’s is rare and sought after by collectors and rein-actors alike. Runs good, 5 new tires, M.P. police lights work, starter is weak.”
I don’t remember seeing another Steger appear for sale.
“This pedal car was found in the rafters of a garage in Chicago. It was purchased at an estate sale where it was found. Original wood bodu. Refurbished. Asking 550 obo”
I’m working late on the book tonight to finish Draft 4 of my new book, which I expect will be the last major draft. So only a few updates tonight. I’ll do some more throughout the afternoon on the way to Seattle tomorrow.
I cooked dinner and enjoyed a movie with my wife tonight, so no updates on Thursday.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
If I could only fit this in the jeep I’d buy it and bring it back with me. I’m sure someone else will enjoy it.
