Robert has a new hobby.

I didn't even know my sweetie was a gear head. He drives a gas guzzling Lincoln Aviator that gets something like a mile and a half to the gallon. That is not good in Houston which is really spread out. He has been wanting to buy a little cash car that he can putz around in instead of the truck. I had no idea how little he was talking about. He found this 1971 (year that we were born) Triumph Spitfire on Craigslist. When he brought it to my office to show me (when I took this photo) a guy drove by admiring it and asked if it was for sale. Heh. 

Nifty enough, he found a few boxes of restoration stuff in the trunk. The engine is good. One of the seats is a leather one in labulous condition and the other one is comeplete crap. The ride was a nice one, but was hot. There is no air conditioning. It feels like you are riding with your butt on the ground. Veeeeeery low. 

The funniest part was walking out and seeing Rob, who is 6'3"-6'4" standing next to this tiny british import. Funnier even was watching him get in and out. I am sure watching me get in and out is even funnier.
