8 June 2024 Car Show Time

It seemed like Pontiac night at an annual local car show. An early spotting of a 65 GTO was a great way to get the visit started.

They called them "wide-track." They were just wide highway cruisers.

A well-loved Ford...

This Honda K car was by far the smallest of the event. It made our miata look huge.

Meep... Meep

7 June 2024 Sunny Lake Visit

It was an overcast, late-spring evening by the time I left my office and stopped for a Sunny Lake visit.

The ducks seemed happy on the shore.

25 May 2024 Visiting Redbrook Metropark

We stopped at Redbrook to find a few geocaches while on the trails. The labrynth was a peaceful journey before we began geocaching.

Lupines were in bloom to add to our journey.

Maybe this isn't the safest way to reach the river...
