It was such a beautiful day here in southern Ontario, sunny and 13 degrees Celsius when I got up 7:30, I decided to get the Packard out and give it thorough cleaning. I have been so busy this fall that I have not driven her since before Hershey, so she was a little dusty.

I then when on about a fifty mile drive making sure to avoid shopping areas. I had not expected to get her out again this season, this being Canada, so it was great that Mother Nature provided me the chance to give myself an early Christmas present of a drive.

At the end of the drive I stopped in to my local Shell station to fill her up with gas and add a dose of stabilizer. The station was busy and I was swamped by people coming over wanting to talk about my Packard.

I felt bad for the people waiting behind me at the pumps, but in true holiday fashion, on my way back from paying for my gas, the driver rolled down his window complimented my car and wished me a sincere Merry Christmas.

I would like to pass that Merry Christmas on to the Packard community on this forum, and may you all have a safe and Happy New Year.

Bob
