Smile >Thanks Barbara<

Thanks `Barbara for starting a New MCF Thread on this topic + sharing the many things that you are thankful for in your `Life

I am also blessed with a created BeachBum Family.

#1. I'm thankful to my grandfather who took me in when my mother dropped me off when I was a few weeks old & never returned. He has given up so much to raise me & take good care of me.

#2. I am thankful for my girl friend that I met when I was just about five years old & I fell in love instantly (lol) She hit me >LOL< We have been 2gether now for over 2 decades.

#3. I am thankful to my Beach Bum family of seniors that help raise me with their throw away relative kids & we formed our own Beach Bum Family. They homeschooled us, mentored us & were always there for us...

#4. I'm thankful for good health, a great job & boss, + my best friends (brother's) Beach Bum's `Mike, Tommy & J.D. ("you can't choose your family, but you can chose your Friends") > I love my friends & Family 4-Sure.

#5. I'm thankful for my freedom & to those that gave their life + to keep us `free.

#6. I'm thankful that I can `be anyone that I am capable of being & that I can have anything I want in this life `if I am willing to work hard & give `up to get, give `up to keep and also to share with those in my life + those in need!

# 0 to a Million + I could fill our forum with the many things I am thankful for in my life & I don't want to leave out my Monte Carlo Family....I joined the MCF 9 years ago this Month & I have learned so much from so many on our forum from member's from all over planet earth. We are a very diverse group. Thanks everyone for being a big part of my life...

Wish all a very Happy/Thankful Holidays...

I depart in Pease & Happiness 2 `all.

Great thread Barbara!


What I am thankful for this Christmas


1) That we live in a country where we don't have to worry about our cities being attacked by terrorists fanatics

2) Thankful for my family Wifey, my daughter & her family, my son, and his girl-friend.

3) And my job, and that the fact I can and am able to retire in 2016

4) This group, and my Monte friends sorta like an AA
(Automotive Addicts)



5) The Lil Deuce, She has brought happiness, car friends, and a great hobby. She's my "Other" woman as wifey says.


Too may blessings to list here .

I hear you about too many things to list here!
I have people that have passed away who shaped me into the person I am today and for that, I am eternally grateful.
Wow, and I forgot to mention our active military and veterans!! Thank you all for your service! I cannot believe I did not put that in there. I make American flags and flagpoles for a living and did not mention our veterans...Shame on me. My apologies.
Space-9 years? wow!!!! Congrats. In February I will have been here a year.
Tadd- If I had a significant other, I am sure my Montes would be considered the "other women" in my life!!!! LOL

Thankful? Still have a few dollars in my pocket after all the damn X-mas sells, and after buying crap for all the ol friends poking their head in for a holiday treat. Almost $125 in whiskey, but at least they are the sharing type, until we start getting close to the bottom of the bottle, then they get plain ol mean on ya...

I am thankful for God, family, friends, this wonderful country we live in, this Monte Carlo Family, my Monte Taz63, the fact the we could all gather, travel, and worship in our own way or not at all without persecution.In some other countries people can not. I could go on and on but yall get the picture. For me material possessions come and go but the bond of friendship last forever.

With that said, I am darn thankful for an addiction to Horsepower!
