I am delighted to show you the garage of one of our readers, David Hunter, Colorado, USA. David send me some pictures and some history to share with you. Hope you enjoy reading as much as I did.
Shown above we can see David’s 1969 Ford Fairlane in the driveway. His parents bought it new in Boulder Colorado. They picked it up on Halloween night 1968. His dad wanted to get the Fairlane with the 428, 4 speed transmission and bucket seats, but he had a family with three kids so he ended up with the practical 351 Windsor, automatic transmission and bench seats. It is probably just as well as David got to drive the car in high school and college. David said “I don’t think I would have made it through high school if I had a car with a 428”.
The red Pantera in the garage is David’s. He had wanted a Pantera since he was 15 years old. His wife, Dawn, knew this and saved up her money for a number of years with the intention of getting a Pantera for his 40th birthday. If only all our wifes thought this way!
4 weeks before David’s 38th birthday, he unfortunately had a heart attack. Once Dawn knew he was going to make it through she decided to speed up her plan and get the Pantera for his 38th birthday. She found the car in Saint Louis, bought it and got it shipped to Colorado in less than 2 weeks. David says, “I was quite surprised when I heard its distinctive rumble as my friend pulled it up to my birthday party. Dawn certainly earned herself infinite wife points for this. The other wives at the party were not too happy with Dawn for setting a new bar for birthday presents.”
David continues, “I had always thought that I had a nice unfinished 8 car garage until I joined the Colorado Pantera club. Once I joined the club I got to see some of the great garages that the other members had. Well Dawn didn’t want me to feel left out so she came up with the tile pattern design and then laid all 1600 square feet of tile and painted the garage walls to match. Now we host most of our parties in the garage.”
The photos shown here were taken at a gathering of the Colorado Pantera club. Some of the other cars show are a white 1965 T-bird owned by my parents, a 1968 Mustang owned by my friend Brock Myers, an Oldsmobile 442 owned by my friend Jim Verstrate and various spectacular Panteras.
If you have a beautiful fantasy garage and will allow me to show it on the site, send me pictures and information about the cars to willwynn@mycarheaven.com.

There is a yearly registration fee of $35.00 for the first student; or $55.00 for a family (immediate family members).
Registration requires the completion of an information form, payment of registration fee, and your signature on our enrollment agreement. By signing this form, you are acknowledging that you understand your monthly tuition charges and procedures for discontinuing classes.
The fee guarantees your place in a class and covers the business clerical costs associated with your enrollment.
Make-up classes are allowed and must be made up within one month of the missed class, based on availability. If you know in advance you will miss a class, please notify our office.
When you take a make-up class, please check in with the office to receive an admission pass for class.
Tuition is due on the first day of every calendar month. If payment is made before the 1st of the month, and the account balance is zero, a discount of $5.00 will be applied. We are able to offer this discount because early payments save us the clerical costs associated with generating a statement and mailing it to you.

Sometimes it may be necessary to cancel classes due to inclement weather. In this circumstance, Dance Central will make every effort to make up as many classes as possible.
To discontinue a class, the parent must complete a termination of enrollment form in the office. The form must be received by the first of the month in order to not be charged for tuition that month or subsequent months. Also, be aware that re-enrollment will require the payment of another registration fee unless arrangements have been made in advance for special cases such as long term illness, vacations, etc.
A beautiful simple to use guide to manage your life and money. Using this resource helped me in so many ways!
*First, tracking my incidental expenses during the week helped me to identify holes in my budget. Namely, I spent two or three or even five dollars easily on convenience foods and snacks at work on a daily basis. When I looked at the total over a week, I realized even just buying a family size of my favorite snack could save me $10 a week. No cooking required!
*Next, keeping track of my work hours gave me a sense of accomplishment at the end of each work day and work week. I could give myself a mental pat on the back for making it through another work week. In the days of direct deposit where checks are no longer passed around, seeing this visualization of where exactly my day went really helped.
*Thirdly, keeping track of my mental and physical health and health goals helped me to see the big picture of what I was or wasn’t doing even though I thought I was. This includes simple things like taking the stairs at work, or walking the perimeter of my office building during my lunch or breaks. For you it can include bigger things like a prescribed exercise or a healthy eating regimen.
*Lastly, I keep a gratitude log. This Journeykeeper helps me track that during the day. I like to look at my gratitude log periodically and at the end of the year to remind myself of my everyday blessings. I track simple things like making it to work on time, or not burning down the house after leaving the stove on accidentally to prayers answered for my family or myself. Overall, this is the best tool to keep track of your life and money!
The Single Girl Money calendar is a great way for a busy girl to track her monthly expenses. You can update it daily or weekly or monthly as you see fit. It auto-calculates your expenses for the day, the week or the month, and keeps a running tally. For those that like to track no-spend days, if you pull out an old statement and update the calendar, you can get a quick overview of days or weeks that are more spendy than others. The Single Girl Money calendar is a good fit for those who want to track their daily spending and identify trends.
I love, love, love this one! This is the best budgeting tool for those getting ready to take control of their finances. It has so much to offer. It’s great for
those trying to stay on budget in just a few categories. It provides a column to set your target and then to track your progress for the whole calendar year! That’s my favorite feature and there’s a line graph for quick reference. Other visuals include under/over conditional formatting in attractive colors to give you a quick monthly reminder of how well you’re doing each month relative to your spending or savings target. There are also great trending tools for the more visually inclined. The Single Girl Money Boss-Your-Budget Tool has a lot to offer for the serious #singlegirlboss who benefits from setting goals, analyzing numbers and visualizing trends!
