We went to the Simpsonville Labor Day festival downtown today and had a great time. We didn’t get there until about 11:30 am but beat the registration deadline for the car show. It was a long day in the sun and Mandy was great and got some cool tshirts for us and watched my car. Chic-fil-a was there so we were able to eat that for lunch. I found out after the judging was over later tonight that there were several things I should have had to get a better judgment on my car, for example a fire extinguisher and a different battery. I spent the evening tearing down my carburetor and pulling the plugs to see what may have been my sputtering problem in the Belair on the way home. I didn’t get finished putting it all back together til late so I’ll have to do my testing tomorrow. All in all is was a good day we are just toasty burned from all the sun
