I surprised someone tonight!

UPDATE!

Well first, He could not make it up from NC last year which kind of bummed me out as I really wanted to meet him, but life went on until last Friday when my cell phone rang while I was at work and his name popped up on my screen, I immediately answered the phone, he told me he was in town and wanted to see me, 20 minutes later he showed up at my workplace and we were face to face for the very first time. I called my work partner John from the back of the store and we both chatted with him for about 15 minutes or so. We arranged a meeting for Saturday at the Hotel where he was staying at and would call me when he was there to set a time for the meet.

Yesterday evening the wife and I went to the Hotel and met him in the parking lot, the man was in awe, he loved the paint color, looked inside the car, then under the hood, and in the trunk, he just couldn't believe how well preserved the car was inside and out. I asked him if he wanted to go for a ride and to a resounding "yes!" I handed him the keys and said "Wanna drive? "I would love to" was his response. We cruised it around the town for about 20 minutes, he even opened it up on a straight stretch of road and said it felt the same as he remembered from years ago. When we got back to the Hotel I took a pic of him with the car then the wife took one of both of us with the car, we chatted for a little while longer and then the wife and I left. I do wish I could of met his wife too but she was at a Class Reunion, sadly they are leaving today.
