New to Forum, but not BerettaFest

I am new to the Forum but not to Berettafest. There were alot of new people there this year that I had not met because they attending before I started, and they returned last year in Denver that I missed so I wanted to take a minute to tell y'all about our car. Katlyn, Lindsey and I have the Teal Indy that has been at Berettafest since Columbus Ohio in 2005, except for last year in Denver when we didn't attend and this year when I didn't bring the Indy.
My oldest sister Ann purchased the Indy new in April 1991 for about $16,000. She drove the car until she had a major accident and was unable to drive any longer. The car sat in her carport for almost 6 years then in 2003 she sold me the Indy for $50 so I could start taking better care of the car. After Ann passed away in January 2005 I wanted to do something special with the car besides letting it sit any longer. Thats when I found Beretta.net and started attend the Fest. It has been a great way for my kids and I to have family trips thru out the country and even into Canada. The Indy still sits a lot more than I'd like to admit and it still needs a lot of TLC. The paint has seen better days and the dash has curled, do to sitting in this hot and humid climate of South Mississippi.
Well glad to now be apart of the forum and maybe this will keep our beretta on my mind and get me motivated to start working on it again.
