The Awkfest, held in Macungie, PA is a big event locally attended by many from all over the country. It's a "car show" plus, and every year I have a vendors space there for marketing my handmade greeting cardsBeing a child of "The 50's" I love the older cars - they're so distinctive and colorful! As I watch them year after year process onto the field for display , the energy of my youth rises in me! First the "oldies" enter- the cars of the 40's, 50's, etc. and then the "grand-daddies" - the older models enter with their putt...putt...putt! There's something about an "old flibber" that stirs the soul and takes you back to a time in life when everything moved at a much slower pace - and the older the car the sweeter the feelings are!
The Kalico Kard above (click here to view a larger image or purchase) was a popular seller this year at the car show. The message inside it speaks to many of us baby boomers livin' on the flip side of 50: "At our age it's just putt...putt...putt!"! We find a slower pace better, even a putt...putt...putt, as long as we keep moving! After 50 we realize that" any day above ground is a good day"!
