New England Bird Sightings

[Sweet T]

Wednesday was a big bird day for me.....I saw FIVE....all soft tops.

Thought I'd post them in case any are lurking members. Stop in and say "Hi".

North on the Expressway, a 007, MA reg SVRET. (I really hope to are here, 'cause your plate is driving me crazy)

Newton, parked in an office building lot, a Robin's Egg (yeah, I know)

Rutherford Ave., another Robin's Egg, female long blonde hair.

North End, Torch, parked near Joe Tecce's.

93N, heavy traffic, Triple Black.

Yesterday, Lynnfield/Wakefield line, gorgeous MSG, looked like it had just been detailed, MA reg 80049 (I think).

Also yesterday, a convertible Porche pulled in front of me on the highway, plate "Sweet".....what are the chances of that?!

Oh, and I saw one for Wes on a black Lexus....reg "GOSOX 1".

[Bird03]

Wow. Thats a lot of sightings. I haven't seen one in three weeks.

I stopped at Farnhams clam shack for lunch this week. A woman comes over to me while I'm eating and says "are you a Bird watcher or a fan of Larry Bird".

It took me a few seconds to figure out why she was asking me that. Then I thought...oh the license plate. I told her that it was from the car..a Thunderbird.

She laughed and said "Sorry I was having a blonde moment."

I said "that's OK...my friend that also has a Thunderbird uses that line all the time".

[MATBird]

Hey, this is a great idea - By region makes sence. Last week an '02 Blue with top down in Chelmsford center. Last Thursday, a Black Bird on 495 in Amesbury

[Sweet T]

"Sorry I was having a blonde moment."

I said "that's OK...my friend that also has a Thunderbird uses that line all the time".

Let's see.....who could that be?

Terry? Sue? Kirsten?

[Peeps]

I personnally am going to use the blonde thing as long as I can, since I refuse to go the age route!:laugh:

Sue

[Chuck]

Barbara, and you didn't put my cell phone number on the blonde's windshield / give her my cell phone number? What's up with that? Don't worry about Robin's Egg, that was the original name for the color. My bottle of touch up paint says Robin's Egg Blue on it.

[Sweet T]

When logic and common sense fail.....it sure comes in handy huh? :high5:

Actually Chuck, you did cross my mind. Then I figured, she's too old for you.....could never keep up!

It will ALWAYS be Robin's Egg Blue to me.

[Sweet T]

Four more today. What's going on? All the slumber birds being sold off? (also a red Allante, yellow SSR, a DeLorean, and a chicken trying to cross the road....no joke).

All topless:

Torch - Rte.1 in Ipswich...was trying to see if it was Wes, but it had generic plates.

Sweet VMG in Newburyport, MA reg "W 857".

Very sweet Black/Tan, Hampton Beach NH reg "C-Scene".

Another Black at Rye Beach, generic NH tags.

That makes 10 for me since Wednesday. Not as rare as they used to be.

[Bird03]

Tonight I was making my three loops around Fenway Park for good luck prior to the game. At Brookline and Lansdown St I came face to face with a yellow '02. We really weren't moving at all due to all the Red Sox fans walking all over the street, but as soon as I started talking to the guy driving the Bird, some cops came out of nowhere and started yelling "move it".

[02LeeBird]

On my way home from work Last week on 140 in Boylston a 007, top down, with an older couple in it. I was in LEEBIRD, top down, and waved but no response. Beautiful car and the first I have seen up in my neck of the woods.....On the same road a MSG turning into a development but I was in the Cruiser going the other way.....

[Nicky-The-Squid]

Yesterday, I passed by a black with hard top on heading south on Rte 3A Duxbury. I was heading North. I was waiving, he was focused.

[Sweet T]

Where do we get the TBN cards? Was it Salprint? All of mine were in the TBird when she was stolen. The police fingerprinted every single one of them.

Saw a TBird Blue this morning in Cambridge. "1222 V?"

[witchcitybird]

Sweet T,

last month at amherst NH a 05 bronze

by stony brook earlier in Westford, black/red interior, got a wave back

Last week on RT62 in Danvers at a light, tourq with ma plate GOGRLS

Witchy George.....I'm still waiting for your horticulturist to show up hehe.

George....I never thought about it, I think I may be able to make my own! If it doesn't work out, I'll certainly drop her a line, thank you.

Two more today....I've lost count now.....a Merlot and an '02 triple black, both soft tops.

[Chuck]

Where's the blonde in the DSB?

Epi made mine, she can use your pic or a stock one of any color.

[Sweet T]

Thanks John! I like the emblem.

I played with the old ones I got from Salprint and played with the new font (other thread).

George,

I thought I saw you on the radar up in that area. Got a couple of weak hits on the radar at 200' outside our airspace. I called on the radio "Hey George, are you out there" but got no response. Maybe I was out at lunch when you actually came through our area.

Wes,

We stopped flying the lines at Route 1 in Topsfield and headed back north. We were there about 11:30 am.

A gorgeous day to fly. The foliage was still good. At least no potential trouble on the lines.

The chopper we were in was a TV celebrity. It was brought from the LAPD and was the police copter chasing OJ's bronco.

Then you should get a picture of your Bird with the helicopter, and post it on the thread, "Your Bird with a celebrity". :high5:

Yesterday:

2003 whisper white with black soft top at Beverly Airport.

Merlot with tan soft top on 128 getting off at Reading.

[MATBird]

An '03 Mountain Shadow Grey bird in Chelmsford center, Saturday noon. Since Kevin sold his I don't think we have a grey bird in our group

[Blue Heaven]

Last night...an Inspiration Yellow with soft top up in the parking lot at Dakota's Restaurant. The first yellow I've seen around here in a very long time.

[Sweet T]

I saw a black and another Robin's Egg (it was a guy, Chuck) this past week.

That makes 30ish sightings in less than a month between us.

Hey....anyone want to go to the New England International Car Show at the end of the month?

[Nicky-The-Squid]

Saw a Bronze with soft top yesterday, on Rte 3 heading south. Got off in Sandwich. I followed him for about 30 miles after he passed me in Duxbury. Didn't ge a wave. So even though I saw another bird yesterday I don't think that guy did!

[Sweet T]

Saw an Inspiration Yellow, hardtop, near Suffolk Downs this morning. MA reg. "LO".

Had some kind of weird contraption on his hood. Wasn't quite a bra, as it was only on the front of the hood. Almost looked like a straight line of black tape, with larger rectangles on each side. Gave it a Groucho Marx look.

[MATBird]

Barb That was probably just the top of a Bra. Some of them have weights on each side like inverted V's in leather so it will not flap. My Mazda had that

[Chuck]

Went to Scullers Jazz club on Saturday night. In the Double Tree parking garage on the 1st level right out side the entrance to the hotel there was a Merlot. Was gone when we left. Was in definite need of a wash.

[witchcitybird]

An 04 platinmum on Ipswich Rd Boxford last thursday. I didnt' turn around to follow to give him a card as i was driving one of the utilitiy's yellow trucks.

Would have been tough to explain that.

Witchcitybird

[witchcitybird]

A platinmum with a saddle colored hardtop heading north yesterday on 128 in Wakefield I pulled up next to it in a dirty Witchcitybird looked over and almost went off the road! A woman in her late sixtiy's, Big Glasses, holding on for dear life to the steering wheel! what a sight! Still LOL.


Witchcitybird

[02LeeBird]

I saw a MSG a couple of days ago on Rt. 12 West Boylston with hard top on and a lady driving.....Car looked clean for this time of the year....

[witchcitybird]

three sightings in one day!

This morning a yellow on the back of a car carrier heading north on Route 128

A red 02 at the rehab center in Needham where my mother is.
Had red sox license plates, left a TBN card

Another red, heading south on 128 this afternoon

Can't forget the platinum on easter sunday, also rt 128,

an unwashed Witchcitybird

[Bird03]

Another red, heading south on 128 this afternoon


I was on 128 going south between RT 2 and the Mass Pike around 1PM yesterday. Still have the top on.

Around 1:30 PM, I saw a Red with the hardtop going East on the Mass Pike around the Westborough/Framingham area.

I am on a road trip walking transmission lines in Albany area. Have gone to Syracuse today to meet with the client

Not one bird siteing, Not even Sweet T.

Haven't put her back on the road yet this year.........

My insurance agent called two weeks ago and said, "Is it time yet?" lol

Sweet T,

Time to get her on the road. Stopped at Liberty Tree Mall last nite and sure enough the Wednesday Cruise nites have begun!

Saw an ice blue on route 62 heading towards the Mall, waved , no response.

At least the bird had its first bath in a while

Witchcitybird

[Sweet T]

Can't believe the cruise nights have started already!

First priority is Uncle Sam (nothing like waiting 'til the last minute.....I owe), then Sweet T's valve covers, COP's and boots :sad: She's been sitting all winter but fires up like new.....still on the original battery. I bet she can make it to Liberty Tree in her current condition though. If you're going Wednesday night, let me know, I call my new agent lol.

Saw a filthy TBird blue on the Mid-Cape Hwy yesterday, soft top, C&I plates.

[Bird03]

I'll be out of town next week, but the Wed. after that (April 23rd) I'm up for going if the weather is good.

[Bird03]

Roger spotted me in Tweaty going to work today and called me on the cell to let me know.

Two weeks ago the same thing happened.

I guess I'm easier to spot in the yellow one. Never saw him as he was driving the beemer and the old truck.

[MATBird]

I spotted a Merlot on Pease Trade Center in Portsmouth, NH the other day. Could it have been MerlotBlue from Farmington, NH?

[MATBird]

This morning I spotted a 2002, TBird Blue with Black soft top, on a car carrier Northbound on I-495 in Haverhill, MA. :roll:
Did one of our New England members buy something and not tell us.....or is it just someone moving into NE? :cheers:

[02LeeBird]

Spotted a very nice looking Black Bird, top down, on Rt. 9 out in Ware on Saturday. It was heading into a little town fair but I don't think they saw us.....I am being told there is another WW Bird roaming around Rt. 140 in Shrewsbury but so far I have not seen it myself....

[Bird03]

Last week while I was at work, a couple parked in their 007 by the tower at Beverly Airport to watch the planes come and go.

When they left I went out on the catwalk and pointed down to Tweaty. Got a thumbs up from both of them. If they had stopped I would have given them a tower tour (the best place to watch airplanes) but they kept on going.

[Nicky-The-Squid]

Last Wednesday, I saw a Whisper White at the Quincy Adams MBTA station parking lot. Soft top up thank goodness. I just wished it luck as I continued past in my daily driver looking for a parking space.
The next morning during my commute I passed a black, hard top up, Gentleman about my age driving alone with a nice calm expression on his face. Not the expression most of us commuters dawn that time of day. My imagination decided that he was retired and glad he doesn't have to battle that traffic every day as he was driving off to a better place than I was going. Have no idea if it is true but it is my imagination and I'm sticking with it. :bigsmile:

[MATBird]

Last evening a black TBird went past my house....? Drive by

Also listed in Action Unlimited; 2002 Red w/two tops at Westford Auto Sales - $20,995 it says "red two toned leather, both tops 49K miles like new" I believe we all saw this the day we did QAA rockers /Kimball's trip.

[Bird03]

Sighted by a coworker:

Yellow with MA plates cruising around Ipswitch. Could be IY or IG due to novice T Bird spotter.

[Sweet T]

Yellow with MA plates cruising around Ipswitch.

Sure Wes, sure. You just got caught sneaking over to the Clam Box!!

[Geodiver]

In the past week I saw three TBirds in RI...first time I've seen any since purchasing mine in May...one red bird in Woonsocket, RI...one black bird in Lincoln, RI and one white bird on Rt. 295 in Lincoln...they must be flying north for the summer

[Bird03]

Major sighting up this way by my coworker (he's a novice spotter, but pretty knowledgeable after hearing me go on and on about our T Birds at work).

Costco parking lot in Danvers

FL plate...something like....1YLOBIRD

Yellow with a white top!!!!!!

I grilled him about the difference between Inspiration and Inca, but he thinks it was Inspiration.

That's the next town over from my work, so I hope we bump into each other before they return South for the winter.

[Blue Heaven]

WOW! Another IY with white top!!!

I saw an '02 Torch Red on Main Street in E. Greenwich, RI yesterday, RI plate LCD-1

[witchcitybird]

A black 02(dirtier than mine) turning into Onion Town Grill in Danvers last friday,

White with soft top up at SudburyFarms in Needham on Saturday

and a red with hardtop getting detailed at Harnett's Car wash in Danvers. Hope they did not run it thru the car wash as they have rotating dryer drums which the swirlies will never come out

Also on the B-PJ feery recieved a compliment from the person in front of me and she indicated she had just brought a mint green bird. She was visiting from the left coast. Of course i gave her a card.

Witchcitybird

[MATBird]

Red w/black soft top up at Butcher Boy Plaza at Noon today, in North Andover, Route 125
'02 Blue on Summer street in Chelmsford on last Friday.

[MATBird]

Red TBird, top down, going Northbound on the Spaulding Turnpike in Rochester, NH at 12.30 8-17, Sunday noon.

[Bird03]

Yellow Bird with top down going south on Rt. 1 in Danvers.

Same area as the Yellow with a white top was sighted. Couldn't see the plate to check if it was the one from FL.

[MagicFen]

The only thing I know about Danvers is someplace called The Golden Banana. Don't ask, and I won't tell.

Spent the weekend of August 9th and 10th visiting my folks in CT. Saw a whisper white in New Milford on Saturday evening heading south on Rt 202. Saw a sweet black beast in Middlebury on Sunday morning. Wish I had mine, but it was resting in the garage back in Oregon.

The Golden Banana just re-opened this year! :omg:

Anyhow, lite ice blue with tan top on rt 62 middleton monday and a black bird in the window at the ford dealer in Billerica.

Wonder if the blackbird is the leaker I took for a test drive before i brought mine?

Witchcitybird

[Sweet T]

...and a red with hardtop getting detailed at Harnett's Car wash in Danvers. Witchcitybird

The car's still there George.....with no plates on it.

I bet it's the same '03 they had for sale a couple of years ago. Must have put it in storage and trying again.

How is it you know the Banana's open again? hmmmmm?

It used to be that the GB had no cover and no drink minimum. And the view was always fairly interesting. Speaking of viewing birds...

[Bird03]

Took Mom out to dinner at Barber's Crossing in Sterling. On the way home followed another yellow bird with top up and regular Mass plate for 10 miles Eastbound on Rt 2 before they got off in Littleton.

Until I bought Tweety, I had never seen another yellow other than at a car show. Now they're coming out of the woodwork.

[Sweet T]

There were probably a dozen or more things I should have accomplished today, but it was so nice out I said frig it and took the bird...and the dog out.

I saw more birds today than I did round trip to NC earlier this month. Guess I wasn't the only one to frig it today.

All with tops down:

Merlot on Rte1 in Hampton NH, way ahead of me.

Torch going over the Newburyport Bridge.....huge wave, arms in the air, blonde.....Chuck would have loved her lol.

Torch on Plum Island, parked.

MSG on Rte 1A detour (how long has that been closed....I never saw the sign) Newbury-ish, both driver and passenger gave two thumbs up.

Got me thinking....since I've met you guys, owning a Tbird is only HALF the fun.....these people don't know what they're missing.

[02LeeBird]

I drove by a nice MSG, rag top up, standard Mass plate, on 495 heading South in Marlborough this morning around 8:30. Pulled up next to him, my top was down, got a nice smile and wave which I returned....Then I hit the gas as I was running a little late.....

[Blue Heaven]

[Nicky-The-Squid]

Was out this morning getting my inspection sticker for my ICE TEA. Pulled into the Shell station on Rte 53 Hanover just of Exit 13 Rte. 3. Saw a MSG coming out of the inspection bay as I was pulling into the station. Who but Peter Kulturides, cho143. I was 5th in line so he kept me company for almost half an hour just catching up on things. Gotta be a year since I saw Peter last. Was great to see him again.
We miss you Pete. Hope you can join us one time or another. If not we can still do breakfast some morning. Happy Birthday to your wife.

[bob andersen]

I saw a beautiful yellow bird, license Mr C at a flea market in Danbury. It had a continental kit and white walls. I left a TBN card on the seat.

[Birdlover]

I bet it was the same yellow bird I saw a couple of weeks ago on Main St in Concord NH. That car really caught my eye! I'm not much into continental kits, but it really looked good and the white walls were the finishing touch. Gorgeous!

[Bird03]

Hey Richard.

Feel free to join us at one of our upcoming events in New England.

Friday morning -9-5-08 at 7:30 AM, A Merlot with top down getting off exit 3 from I-95N in Portsmouth, NH

[02LeeBird]

Friday, mid morning, on our way to Old Orchard for a long weekend, we saw a nice Bronze Bird in Kittery with top down. On the way back Sunday afternoon, a nice Platinum, top down, also in Kittery. Gave a thumbs up to both but we where driving the Cruiser, because of the weekend rain. Man did it ever rain Saturday night.....

[Geodiver]

This weekend while diving off of Jamestown in RI I a guy and his wife drove up with an 02 inspiration yellow with 7000 miles on it!...the guy was pretty nice and said he only drives it on perfect weekends...the bird looked like it had just come out of the showroom..he also informed me that there was a Thunderbird web site:)

There's a Thunderbird website?? How come I'm always the last to kn...uh...nevermind.

[02LeeBird]

We saw a beautiful Yellow Bird on route 12 in West Boylston Saturday around Noon. No vanity plate and we where driving the Cruiser....Later in the afternoon a Black ragtop, needing a good washing and detailing, on route 20 in the Marlborough area.....Gave a late wave to Black Bird but they may not have seen us......

[Bird03]

Ken and Carol Oates have an 03 BlackBird with a teal pinstripe and live in Marlborough. Don't think you have met them. They used to attend the Fitchburg shows in the early years.

[02LeeBird]

Didn't notice any teal pinstripe but it could have had one. They where coming out of a side street and I only got a quick look.....But I think we did meet them a few years ago because I seem to remember the teal pinstripe.....

Saw an '02 Black, soft top with FL plates on Washington St in Hoboken over the weekend. Parked across from Vito's. At least, he has good taste.

[bob andersen]

State Motors in Manchester, N.H. has a silver 04 for sale. It has four one inch circles cut and plugged in the rear bumper. The salesman told me it is an optional back up warning system and is original equipment. Have any of you heard of it? Also, there is a red 02 at Grappone Ford in Concord. Both are in great shape.

[Bird03]

Most of the trains given to children for Christmas were starter sets and are very common. Unless you really got into it and bugged your parents to buy additional pieces, you probably don't have anything with a high value.

[witchcitybird]

will email to you all the appropriate questions about the set and make an offer you cant refuse!

I guess this one come under the category of "a sighting of Me".

On the way to work yesterday, I was on 128 going North. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a white Lexus about to pull along side. I'm getting ready to give the "yes it's a great car, thank you very much wave" when I finally noticed that it was Bruce & Kirsten. They were on their way from RI to NH for the Holiday weekend. I called work and told them I would be late and we all stopped at Starbucks for a coffee.

Very cool! :cheers:

White convert with soft top on Mass Ave in North Andover.

George, you must have been 7 minutes behind me hehe. I was on 128S in Wakefield/Stoneham at 9:22.

[Bird03]

Not me.

Red Baron is sleeping in the garage without comp or collision insurance.

Tweaty is also sleeping until we get some rain to wash away the road salt.

Mom is in FL for the month so I'm driving her Blue Taurus wagon.

It may have been the one from Peabody i used to see all the time.

Was heading down to moms for never ending estate bussiness.

Sweet T,

did you see the all yellow bird heading north on 128 in the same area at 8:55 am yesterday?

Witchcitybird

[Sweet T]

Must have just missed him George.

I think Wes must have a twin in the area. Did it have the blinding shine the red one had?

[witchcitybird]

yesterday at the Dunkin Donuts on Route 1 in Walpole:

The dirtiest Black '02 in seen with black Mystic/Duct tape covering a rip in the soft top. :omg: Yikes!

I did not leave a TBN card.

I came upon a Platinum beauty, with matching hardtop, on Rt. 140 in West Boylston Tuesday night. I saw the couple just as they where turning onto Rt. 70 but the light was red for me and I never got close enough to read the plate. This is the first Platinum I have seen in my area. Bird looked very nice....

During last week's road trip to Lake George area, Red with soft top heading east on the pike near Ludlow.

P.S Wes, went by the Howard Johnson's resturant and Motor lodge in Lake George, NY. The resturant and Motor lodge were closed for the season but were opening up soon.

I hope they do open because the one in Bangor, Me is rumored to be going under. That would make the Lake George Ho Jo's the last one in the country.

[witchcitybird]

Look who found me Yesterday! :bigsmile:

[Geodiver]

OK, so I'm on a field trip today with a group of 8th graders to Providence Performing Arts Center and after the performance we're on the bus heading back to school when a young girl sitting near me yells, "Mr. Lapierre, look, a Thunderbird!!!" Sure enough there was a black 03 in a parking area. Until a few months ago, none of these inner-city cherubs would have known a T-Bird. It's nice to know they're learning something. Now if I could just find the kid who stole my T-Bird Parking Only sign! - Jerry

[MATBird]

Took the TB for a "7th Birthday" ride to Rockport and Glouster today... On the way home we saw a Whisper white, about 1/2 mile south of the Glouster fisherman in a driveway. Doubt if it's any of our members. And, I don't think anyone saw us.:bigsmile:

[birdfan]

We had our Merlot out for our first long drive last Saturday. Nice sunny day, roof down, 160 mile round trip. In Wolfsboro we were crawling throught town in the vacationer't traffic and say a nice 2002 IY parked at a store. Turned around and drove back by in about 5 minutes it was gone. Don't know how it dissappeared that fast in bumper to bumper traffic. Guess it really did make like a bird and fly.

[MATBird]

Latest report:
Around 3:30 PM today on I-95 in NH, headed Southbound just before the NH Liquor outlet on I-95.... Could it have been Mrs. "Birdfan"??:confused:

Also this morning (9-2) around 9:30-10:00 AM) on I-495 headed Northbound. an Inspiration Yellow with Continental kit got on in Bradford, MA, going North-It really looked nice, Wes.:smilegrin

[Birdlover]

On my lunch time walk today I came upon an '03 DSB parked in front of Merrimack County Savings Bank in Concord, NH. It had NH vanity plates "MOTOWN". I've never noticed this car in town before.

Hudson, NH on Friday 10-9 at Noon. A Black TBird with hard top going North on DW highway

I hope they do open because the one in Bangor, Me is rumored to be going under. That would make the Lake George Ho Jo's the last one in the country.

On the way to a recent assignment, in my Black Bird, I spotted another Black bird in a Billerica, MA driveway -- It may be one of our latest members, macdonald268. No one around so didn't stop:redlight:

[witchcitybird]

Two sitings:

Friday: Medium ice blue on Route 3A in Weymouth just before the Fore River Bridge

Thought it was Nicky at first, but the driver was busy with his lollypop

Today: Brunette in Black bird with brown interior on Ferry Rd in Salisbury Had the top down to boot. Couldn'T wave as i was writing and holding the smart end of the tape measure.

Saturday afternoon in Sturbridge, sitting at a Friendly's parking lot, an IY with soft top up. Cindy and I where out for a nice drive in our WW with hard top on.....Lot's of traffic so we didn't stop....

[witchcitybird]

While at the eye doctors last week, was told by the doctor one of our members won a low digit plate in the registry lottery.

Well seeing is believing, saturday on Rt 114 in Danvers, was pasted by a white '02 with a new four digit plate.

Congrats Marvin on your low number and hope to see you at some Tbird gatherings this year. :cool1:

[Blue Heaven]

Ditto!

I arrived at an appointment in Marblehead, went to the door and the guy says, "You've got a 2002 Thunderbird?" I was a little taken back that he actually knew the year.

He leads me to his garage......gorgeous 2002 Black with 4,000 miles on it.

So. Do we have a new member of the New England Thunderbirds?

That was me taking my bird out for a spin. I did enter the Mass low number lottery. Very surprised that I got selected and happy with 5638.
My wife made contact with a high school friend from allentown Pa. She now lives in Edison,NJ. Drove up in our Bird and low and behold she has an 02 Black tbird in her garage. They are members of TBN. What are the odds of that happening.

[Bird03]

I haven't seen this one in person, but the webpage says it belongs to Uncle George and the photo was taken in Winthrop, Ma. A lotta bling on this one.

Wes, did you get a few idea's for the Red Baron from that picture........Nice looking car......

[MATBird]

Wow, he's definitely into chrome/stainless

[Bird03]

An indirect sighting:

The Red Baron was taken out of hibernation yesterday. Had to call AAA for a jump start (yes I will finally get a battery tender next winter).

The AAA guy shows up and says that he sees 2 Thunderbirds in garages all the time.

Really?

Turns out there is a woman only blocks away from me who has a red and a white in the garage. I'm going to take a detour every time I go to work in hopes of seeing them (he gave me the street, but doesn't remember exactly where.

He also remembers a retro/baby Bird sighting and another retro/retro Bird sighting, but can't remember the locations, although they must be less than 5 miles from my house.

[Bird03]

And a sighting of me:

Yesterday Tweaty and me on 128 South driving home from work.

I could sense a car pulling alongside and that I was about to get a thumbs up and would have to give the prerequisite thank you wave.

Turns out it was Marvin (with the Whisper White) who we used to see at the Village Green cruise night and now occasionally see at Liberty Tree cruise night.

Today I met Doug from Main at a car show in Londonderry NH. What a beautiful T-bird he has. It was great to talk to you Doug. Hope to meet you again soon.

That's great Len. Wish I had known.

Hey Wes, funny you should mention that, Doug mentioned he kind of expected to see you there. I didn't know about it either till Friday. Found out about it at Liberty Tree Mall show.

A sad sight: Thursday afternoon on route 4 in Chelmsford heading towards Billerica.......a White TBird on a flatbed, with flashers blinking. - Anyone from the group?

[02LeeBird]

Not mine George......Snow White is home in the garage safe and sound......I hope......:nono:

[MATBird]

I recently attended my first meeting of a stamp collecting group in Bow, N. H. I was driving my red 02. The man sitting next to me said he also had one. I have since seen his and found it to be a premium red 03. What are the odds that we would be together at the same meeting. I gave him information about our club. I hope he joins us.

[MATBird]

Friday 9-10 A black Bird parked at a restaurant in Waltham. On Saturday, 9-11, in Lynfield, on Route 128 I saw an '03 blue with white top heading North

[02LeeBird]

Last Tuesday morning on Rt 290 East, a Red Bird with top down and a lady driving with a grin from ear to ear. No vanity plate..... There was a Red Bird for sale at a used car lot over in Auburn the week before. She may have purchased that one because she looked like it may have been a brand new ride for her......
