MCCC - Another Milestone
I posted blogspots much more regularly the last half of 2017 which helped get me to another significant number of posts - MCCC, or, as we write it - 1300.
I've been trying to think of anything that I personally relate to 1300. I've never had it as part of my address in any of the many places I've lived. The closest would be 1242 when I lived in Cedar Rapids.
There are a number of 1300 AM Radio stations - but again, none that I remember listening to.
There are a number of foreign autos with model numbers '1300' -
The Romanian Dacia 1300.
The French Simca 1300.
The Italian Fiat 1300.
And the British Morris 1300.
Of the four, I'd have to choose the Morris, but only because I remember reading a book set in England when I was young and a Morris car was featured in the story. After that, I always thought it would be a neat car to have.
New Balance makes a 1300 women's walking shoe, which I definitely would wear.
And Pelican makes a tough, water proof, hard case for cameras, model 1300. Um-m, don't think I need that.
Then there is the Millennium Falcon 1300 light freighter used by Han Solo and Chewbacca in Star Wars. I haven't kept up on all the Star Wars movies, but I certainly remember seeing the first one.
So, now, as I hit 'publish' on this 1300th blog post, I can begin to think about the two or three posts which will end 2017 and wonder what lies ahead in 2018.
