It's not a big problem but I'm curious.

No I have made the car lock or unlock once or twice but never the trunk. Usually happens when I stoop down low like when I clean the wheels.

Ok this post will be a little pic heavy. It is pictures taken around my house after a long few days of gardening. I have some more mulch to spread maybe one more yard. I will try to get to it this week. Oh and I did not work alone my wife planted most of the flowers and I did the mulching. These shots are one yard of mulch in my truck and the back yard and deck.

Pretty!!! Your hostas look so good... mine have been ravaged by slugs...

[zandron263]

These are from the front of the house and a side bed that we have to separate us from the field next to our house.

[zandron263]

Thanks LBM that sidebed by my garage is a hosta growing paradise. It gets a little sun in the AM but is in the shade most of the day and the sprinklers keep it moist so they get huge. Every hosta I have came from 5 plants that we got from my wifes grandmothers house about 10 years ago. I have split them multiple times.

Zandron, you have a beautiful yard.

Very nicely done. It looks really good. Making yards look nice is a lot of work but it sure looks nice when done right.

Beautiful yard! I have one hosta that is going nuts out by our pond, and a slew of cattails down in the creek. We are on 27 acres so it's redneck chic, but we have a good veggie garden going this year. Dennis rototilled our garden up, we have corn planted, beets, spinach, chard, beans, peas, squash and pumpkins. There is a nice strawberry patch and a miniature plum tree, and raspberries.

Gary does that ALL the time! I'll leave for work at o darkthirty and have to shut the trunk. Or he sets off the panic button!

Beautiful yard! Thanks for sharing! I'm think I will submit to the WCOFF board that our next meeting is at your house?!

Welcome to Camaro 5, it can get addicting and expensive..............

If PONTIAC hadn't gone Away! I'm sure they would have done a firebird. Don't think it would have sold the numbers the Camaro has, but there are firebird peeps still out there!

First car was a TransAm Still miss that car. Didn't care for the conversion in pictures at first but in person it looks fantastic imho. Sometimes its still hard to fathom there is no more Pontiac.:(

Hope you don't mind a little noise. Picked up the car Frid evening.Made good numbers on Eddy Current Dynojet on a very hot heavy day. all the way home. Heading to the Sleep Dr at 1. Really Really hoping for good news on progress.
Have a great morning all.

Morning all! Golf trip completed, I have one more day off to recuperate. The valet at the golf club loved my car. He was an older gent and he said "Man, that thing looks like it is going to bite me"!

Can't keep keys in my pocket, I set of the panic button or pop the trunk.

Any more pics of that smokey and the Bandit Camaro Dianeokie?

I will post up the pics I have and see if I can dig up some more! Very hot car, for sure!

[ROBOSSRS]

I went to a car show this past Saturday it was for all types of cars from Model A s on up. I was a bit disappointed with only three Camaros there including mine ( 69 pro street, 1970 and mine). The other thing was only the Corvette club got to park on the paved parking lot. The rest of us were in the grass. There was room on the paved area for the rest of us. The spectator could have parked on the grass. A lot of the people there knew one another and all the people I talked to did not like the Corvettes. With me having GM stamped on my butt that's hard to take. :(
