Our local sports car club held their Fall Colours Tour today, our colours weren't fantastic (about a week too late) but still a great time!

And it was this cold!

And around here this will be the last event with vintage vehicles until the spring /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Looking forward to what new cars come out from restorations and/or any new purchases over the winter
 
Great pics...Colors are great here right now, we attempted to take the A out for some photos in the country, and after getting a few shots the float in on of the bowls of my 58 got stuck...couldn't knock it free, and didn't have any tools(one would think since my wifes A is her daily she'd carry some tools?) so I had to limp it home, 5 minutes and it was back to normal...so a minor set back....This is what happens when you let cars sit....
BTW: I am collecting tools for my wifes trunk right now...
 
Colors here in mid-atlantic varied, some trees still green, some fully changed. Car show Sunday in VA hunt country offered a chance to drive roads between stone fences lined with trees and fields with grazing horses beyond. There were 9 cars from our driving club (BRRTA) in the group drive to & from the show. Great fun!!! and 240 miles of LBC joy.

Calgary (and Alberta) aren't known for spectacular fall colours like the east coast gets, most of our fall colours are yellow, we get very few red leaves... And we also get a short fall colours season...

We still have the mountains to brag about here though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Nothing beats mountain scenery in the winter...
