| 'Air Conditioner' |
It
was our first really warm day of spring and we were just not going to stay
inside. As luck would have it, we spied an antique
car show in the square that would soon host the Keller Farmers’ Market, and
these cars were fun and funky. This car show also supported two good causes: Down Syndrome Partnership and Cook Children's Medical
Center. Some cars were what we have been dreaming about for years while
others reminded us of our misspent high school days. We were also treated to a
view of one of the first car air conditioners ~ a canister that sat on the
window and let the air flow into the car.

The baby blue T-bird with the port hole and the
Continental package was my favorite. Other cars we’d like to have gracing our
driveway were the 1935 Ford Roadster and the British made Ford Anglia.

All of the cars were polished to the max, the
music was rock and roll, and the folks were friendly. However, there was no food and we were getting
hungry. Rather than sample any of the numerous great places to eat in Keller,
we wandered over to Haslet and ate at Lee’s Barbecue.

The decor wasn’t fancy, but the food was good
and the owner personable. Watching basketball finals on a small TV while rolling silverware,
the owner chatted with us and made sure we had plenty of everything including
his homemade barbecue sauce. This little hole-in-the-wall joint has been around
for 25 years and is listed in Trip
Advisor.
