Coming home from the Blade show, we took a different route. Lookie what I discovered! :D

Tucked back way in the country, there is a car dealership with Ron Newton's name on the door. :D
 
Selling cars as a sideline is not what I would expect, but here's the proof. :D

And, they even sell Cadillacs! :)
 
Okay Danbo, you have found me out! Notice the font of the "N" in Newton on the sign. It is the same exact font I use on my name stamp for my blades. So maybe I DO sell Caddy's on the side.
 
I almost ran off the road when I saw the signs! I just had to pull over and take these pics. I really don't even remember the name of the town we were in. :D
 
Not only does he sell cars, he also runs a charter bus company - saw some of his buses here in D.C. yesterday when out walking at lunch - thought he was only a knifemaker and turns out he is a true Rennaissance man - talk about diversity! :D :D :D

Where exactly did you see the Ron Newton sign at? If it is the one I'm thinking of, you were within ten miles of my shop.
 
Coming home from Atlanta, we were doing our best to avoid Interstate 24, due to the huge music festival that was jamming up traffic for miles. We took I20 towards Birmingham, AL, but turned north on 431. Some town on 431.
