A brand new shiny year, and a bunch of old cars

When we last left our hero, he was doing the Christmas Countdown. And doing a lousy job at it, I must say, and I hope you'll forgive me for both the paucity of content updates to our site and for the distance between said pauce updates. I have several good excuses, not the least of which was the planning of, taking of, documenting of, and coming back home from, our honeymoon overseas -- we spent just over two weeks in Paris and London (a week-ish in each city), and frankly it was a blast. We took several thousand photographs -- not several hundred, several thousand -- and I'm working to get those edited and assembled into some sort of travelogue that I'll post as soon as possible. So stay tuned!

But we've been busy with lots of other things too, including a trip to the annual Portland Swap Meet. It's the largest vintage/antique auto show on the west coast, and it just happened to take place starting the Friday of the week we returned from our trip. Because we had that Friday off, we decided to go a bit early (normally my dad and I go on Saturday, I don't skip work for this usually). It's a good thing we did, too, because we ended up picking up some stuff that I'm sure would've been gone by Saturday if we'd waited. What kind of stuff did we get? You'll have to check out the Photo section to see!
