Ahh. Yet another beautiful sunny day in New England. Like the bulb burning
brightly before going dark. ( that's a coming winter allegory , doctor).
Drove the 100 miles or so early this glorious Sunday morning from Concord
MA to Westminster VT top down with daughter #1 (11 years old), 55 degrees (
heater works great) , crisp and no clouds, few leaf peepers and no cops on
the road that early, to attend the MG Museum Annual Fraternity Tour, which
is actually a gathering of principally, but not exclusively, UK marques,
mostly, but not exclusively MG's. Looked to me to be about 200 cars on a
farm field nested in the Connecticut river valley surrounded by
multicolored mountains. By mid day temperature had gotten up to high
sixties yet still not a cloud to be seen. Participant judging was by
dates of production, not by marque(other than Best MG). A TR6 won the" 74
and newer" class and it wasn't even a stocker for that matter-hey what the
MG owners don't know won't hurt them, though the TR purists no doubt were
howling in agony /8^P.
Saw lister friends Tom O'Malley and John(?) Merino.
Rode back during the sunset hours with daughter #2 (8 years old), top down
all the way again.
Ahhh.
