Saturday, we attended the Rocky Mountain Car Show and Swap Meet. Sponsored by the Colorado Collector Car Council, and held at the Broomfield Airport. Kind of a long'ish drive for us, but worth it. Saw some pretty cool cars, and a couple of interesting aircraft.
IMO, the best looking car Ford ever built.
After the show, we decided to drive up to Estes Park, CO, for the rest of the week end. We always enjoy visiting there. Rocky Mountain National Park is a very special place. Up on Trail Ridge Road, well above 11,000' ASL, we ran across these guys hanging out in the snow. Yes, snow. In August.
Then we met a cousin!
The owner, Steve, purchased the car in 1977. It has had a number of changes over the years. But it still sports the original engine and toploader 4 speed. He lives near by, and visits the park often.
On our way home on Sunday, we drove through a little rain and some wet streets on the Peak to Peak Highway. An annoyance, but no big deal. However, just outside of Nederland, CO, we hit a deluge. Or, I guess it should say a deluge hit us. The wipers worked fine, but I had to use a glove to wipe off the inside of windshield. And then the hail hit. That was kinda painful.
And this storm chased us out of Golden, CO.
All in all, a great Cobra week end!
