My wife's sister, her husband, their daughter, and her new husband fresh from the Czech Republic, all came by today on their way home to Roanoke, Virginia after enjoying Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. At some point someone remembers that the young Czech is a big car enthusiast and suggests that I take him out to the garage to see the Miata and the MGB.
The kid was more excited that I have seen anybody be in a long, long time. He had never seen an MG. He closely examined every square inch of the car. After a while he folded up his 6' 4" frame and climbed in to the passenger seat. When I suggested we go for a ride (mid afternoon, high 90s) I thought he was going to explode with excitement. It was a thrill riding him through the countryside (sweaty, but thrilling nontheless).
He's been here for a few weeks on vacation. They're going back to the Czech Republic soon. When we got back from the ride he said, "Finally, someone who likes cars!" It was great. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/driving.gif
