Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.
Okay I will try to make this brief. I have started a new business for my daughter, one that should do better than the advertising car, found a push cart vending business for an east coast company selling LITTLE JIMMY'S ITALIAN ICE she will have people work the cart at fairs, festivals, parades, events, etc etc and she will go around in her wheel chair with a sample tray I put together and give out little teaser samples to people at the event.  Okay here is the really cool part: I emailed the main office for Jersey Ice, sort of explaining the "plan of business for Lacey" well it was forwarded to a brother (owner) named Anthony Moore, He called us a couple of saturdays ago and introduced himself and said that the email inspired him and his wife so much that they have made it their personal mission to see that Lacey is successful in this business!!!!!!!  He provided me with is home phone and cell number, personal email address, whats pictures of the sample tray I put together and pics of her wheelchair with measurements so they can see what kind of promotional things they can develop for her chair.  Then the other day a box arrives from Little Jimmy's and inside is a 2 sided sandwich board, we did not order this......

Now I have been working with a company that makes custom spoke guards for wheel chairs and "Little Jimmy's" is also getting involved with this by taking a lead role by providing the graphics logo to this other company (something like that).

Anyway sorry this so long but I am just so full of happiness that it is running out al over the key pad.  The 16th of June we have our first event.
Thanks for letting me vent, brag, share.
what I mainly wanted to do is give kudos to the east coast, and if you pass by a Little Jimmy's Italian Ice stand, purchase one for Lacey and tell that thanks from the young lady in Washington state in the wheel chair.  Here is a link to her website:http://www.laceysniceice.com

That is great Larry.  I remember how excited you were when you were first getting this rolling.  This just makes it that much better!


I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

That's cool, Larry!  It's great to hear about companies that care.  I hope we have a chance to buy some of Lacey's Italian Ice soon!  Sounds yummy!
