Smile Rainy Day Fun

I got about 10 blocks from home when all of the water started to flood the streets and all hell broke loose. Had a mini-van in front parting the sea. Water in one pool was at the door sill and spraying out like a power boat. My legs were wet, my feet soaked, I was wipping off the inside of the windshield with my right hand, feathering the clutch, goosing the accelerator, holding my breath, steering through a tributary of the East Fork of the Trinity, and made it home with the little six banger firing on maybe three.

The Austin Healey 3000 BJ8 was 1st in Class and totally drenched. Congtratulations to Richard, Best Cobra; John, Class Trophy Winner, Gary Class Trophy Winner, Steve, hehehe 2nd Place with his real race GT 350 ( 2 rivit missing clone).

We had a blast and we wish more could have supported a worthy charity and another great AER Show.
