Friday Field Trip: A Classic Car Show

First - don't forget to leave a comment on Phoebe Conn's Tuesday post. Today's the last day to enter. I'll announce the winner this weekend.


Next - last week, Jason wanted to know if we'd like to drive up to Loveland, Colorado for a national classic car show. Mostly, he wanted me to be a pair of eyes and hands for our grandson, but I agreed as long as he'd share his pictures. (OK, having a day with our grandson was enough, but I couldn't make it too easy.) And, for those who've come by on my Friday Field Trips, you know that Jason's going to do more than just take pictures of cars. I hope you enjoy his interpretation. And how many of these do you recognize? Or remember? Did you own any of them?

  1. Wow, great photos. I am a sucker for classic cars. We have a classic car cruise in every Labor Day weekend and I took pictures for the online magazine I used to run. Nothing as great as these shots, though.

  3. Maryann -- the benefits of a photographer in the family.

    Dad - hello, and fancy seeing you here. I looked for a red 1947 Pontiac convertible, but couldn't find one.

  4. That's my kind of eye candy! lol

    The next question I have is...What's it do in the quarter mile? Which stems from the fact that hubs drag races. And, yes, I have driven down the track. ;)

  5. Darah - don't know about these cars, but the little remote car drag race I did with my grandson, we managed to get his car down the track in 5.9 seconds.

  9. Wynter, most people there probably saw cars. Jason sees art.

  11. All of these cars are beautiful, but for me, that red and glossy Pontiac Firebird is the winner! Though you only took a sneak peek of the car, its sophisticated essence reveals itself effortlessly. :’>
