Last Saturday was the first car show of the year for our car club to attend as a group. Nine vintage cars, one new car, and 23 members met at Cracker Barrel at a wee hour to get to Shelby, North Carolina by 9:30 for the Broad River European Motor Club's Annual Car Show. Arriving …

A Trip In The Mountain Countryside
Since DH sold his little British car, we haven't had much of an opportunity to go with the group. The car shows don't want a modern car unless it is a Maserati or something equally expensive and rare. Last month, we hosted an Australian Pursuit rally at a local park. It was fun and I …
A Drive for the Love of Dogs
Saturday had beautiful weather for our second drive of the season with the car club. This one was special, as it was a benefit for the local humane society. Everyone who knows me knows I am an absolute sucker for a terrier face. Any dog face, really, I just love them all. When the local …

First Outing in the Little British Car

We did a drive with our car club yesterday. The weather was just perfect, a beautiful sunny day in the 70s. The recent rains had cleared the air and the views were spectacular off the Blue Ridge Parkway. We met in a parking lot near the entrance to Pisgah Forest. This was a Progressive Drive, …
