You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

  • So far only one person saw the collection (the photographer)
  • no pictures of the interiors..
  • Secluded barn in the middle of nowhere but reported near Lisbon
  • Barn doors sealed / welded shut
  • Photographer paid not disclose info...
  • Cars were collected from trade-ins in the 1980's when said owner ran a dealership...
  • Cars again just sitting in barn....
Does this not kinda conjure up a movie that had Kurt Russel in it, where cars were impounded by the towing company, with the owners missing, and stuffed away in the middle of the desert...

DJ - a theme for your next book....

I wonder if some bank actually, legally, owns the title to those cars..cause their original owners defaulted on their loans....and somewhere.....some lawyer is looking for them and offering a reward....

naaaah.. stuff like that never happens in real life.
