Weekend getaway/ Outside event

This past weekend my family & I went to Myrtle Beach for The Run to the Sun annual car show. We stayed in an ocean front condo, which was a big plus. The weather was beautiful and I even got to spend some time on the beach! At the car show there was over 4,000 cars. I know I didn't even see half the cars there because it was so overwhelming. There was so many different cars and trucks there that every one seemed to be in "car heaven". My uncle has been building a '34 Chevy called "The Black Rose". He has spent tons of time and money and it looks amazing. The best part of the weekend was not only attending the car show every day, but the time spent with my family! I couldn't tell you my favorite car or truck because there was too many to decide! My uncle and cousin was obsessed with the rat rods, because they are in the process of building one now. Saturday night we went to Broadway at the Beach and it brought back many memories because I used to go there when I was young! We shopped and had a nice dinner and the weather stayed nice! Our plan is to start making this weekend an annual thing for our family! I'm looking forward to it and it was a great
 
 
weekend getaway!

Poor Gertrude.

Long story short, it's been a rough/emotional and quite long last two weeks and needless to say. spring break will be much needed! So one day, I was getting ready to leave my house to go to the gym. My driveway is like a used car lot as it is because we have more cars than drivers. To get to the point, I was backing out of my drive way and I ran into my moms suburban. First off, I wasn't really focused on her car, I had my mind in a million other places and I looked over my shoulder to make sure I was backing straight and the next I knew I couldn't back up any farther. I put my car a park and starting freaking out because I had never really been in an accident before, even in my driveway....It's really embarrassing especially that I hit my mom's car. Luckily, my parents were not upset with me and they told me that it was just a car that can be fixed and they were happy I was okay. My car is fully covered and it is mainly all cosmetic damage. Since my car is a 2005 and has over 100,000 miles it could be possibly totaled.... which will be sad. So that was my week and hopefully my car will be fixed soon!

RIP Gertrude.....
