The Blogger
I'm a new mom, graphic designer, and proud owner of a 1966 Volkswagen Beetle. I married a part time drag racer in 2008, and have a dog named Rockwell. I reside in the lower peninsula of Michigan, sometimes with blonde hair, sometimes with brown. My husband will tell you I talk a lot, but I disagree. I love to cook and bake but struggle because I married a man who will not eat vegetables (with the exception of corn, white potatoes and cucumbers).
The VW Owner
I currently own a 1966 Volkswagen Beetle. I'm a new owner, I received the car as a Christmas gift in 2007 and there was a diamond ring on the key chain. My now husband asked me to start the car, to which I replied, "I don't have the keys" and when he handed them to me I saw the ring. It's not a show-quality car, but some day it will be, It's a "good 20 footer" as my father-in-law says. My husband is quickly learning the ins and outs of an air cooled vehicle and has lots of plans to update and replace parts. He got the bug road ready in a just a few months, but a few other adjustments and he will be happy. I'm just floored I own a Bug. I've wanted one since the 4th grade, and now I have one. I'm shaky on driving a stick, but learning as I go. It's just a fun car.
The Racer's Wife
Yes, my husband has a small obsession with automobiles. Besides working in the auto industry (which may not be all that great right now), he loves to work on cars. Him and his dad drag race a 1972 Gremlin and a 2002 Dodge Dakota, a "small" hobby I tell everyone. My role is frequently food preparation, menu planning, dog walking, feeding and medicating and support when the car breaks or when the light goes red.
