Happy Birthday Dad!

Yesterday, my dad turned 50!  I've gotten my dad a lot of gifts over the years, and he has always had this "sense" of what was wrapped up in the gift box.  I would try hard every year, at Christmas and his birthdays, to surprise him once and for all.  So, after my dad bought one of his favorite "toys" in 2007, I created these two drawings of his Split Window Coupe.  Finally!  He was surprised!  I was ecstatic, Dad loved the drawing....and he couldn't have guessed no matter how hard he tried.  So, even though I wasn't home to celebrate with my dad on his birthday this year, I thought of that moment we had together - and it brought me back home :)  Love you Dad!
