All Pods Go To Roswell 2003: Spacepod's triumphant return to Roswell!

Thursday -- heading home

Today we're heading to my house. We are just past Nashville, TN, right now and should get into Indy at an earlier time than I'm used to after Roswell. :-) I'm looking forward to seeing my cat Lucy. I've only had her since January, and I've never been away from her this long. (Thanks to my catsitter Amy!)

Spacepod is running well, but he suffered a rock chip in the windshield earlier this morning. We passed an interesting maroon car that I photographed. It may have been a Lamborghini. The front was pointed and slanted down. It was driving with a Corvette.

Last night we tried to stop on the east side of Memphis, but a basketball tournament had all the rooms filled. The extremely helpful guy at the front desk of the Fairfield (we were hoping for a place with a pool and a hot tub) informed us that there were hotels 20 minutes down I-40. Not so. 45 minutes later, we found a Holiday Inn Express with a pool but no hot tub. Sigh. They did have free snacks -- Little Debbies, cupcakes, and such. We liked that a lot!

And now we're stopping for lunch.

I'm certainly no car expert, but I don't think the "unknown maroon" car is a Lamborghini.

I did show it to a buddy of mine who is a car expert and I tend to agree that it is a "Corvette hiding under all that swoopiness."

If you look at the picture and cover the back starting just behind the driver's hand, the front half really does look like a Corvette. It appears someone tried to improve on perfection. :-)

But that is just a guess. On the other hand, clearly you are currently amongst the Holy Grail of muscle cars based on your newest post. :-)
