Sandy and I stopped by my Sister's and Brother In-Law's house yesterday on
our way home from the range. You may remember that Peggy and Jim are new GMC
Owners. Their 1975 GMC Avion is in JimK's shop right now. Not just fellow
GMC owners, but they are also fellow GMC lovers! In addition to the GMC they
are long-time vintage car buffs, mostly Buicks.

I enjoyed looking at some watercolor paintings that Peggy recently completed
- she really has talent! THEN she presented me with a gift bag. The contents
of the bag blew me away! She hand-etched the GMC logo in four drink glasses,
painted a wooden box with the GMC logo on the lid (again, hand painted), and
even lined the interior of the box with padded velvet.

You can see the photos in the album link below.

I'm still blown away!

I see that Jim's web site is T.U. What's the status of your GMC?
