Seattle Trip

Another British car inspired trip.
We ( me & our 3-1/2 year old Granddaughter)
towed the '71 Spitfire up to Eric's (Eeejay),
in Salem,Oregon.
About 45 minutes up the road,I noticed a
friend of mine driving his '70 (White) TR6.I
figured that the trip was off to a good start.
I understand that he's got it running already.
Had a nice visit with him & his Wife.Saw a repair
shop with many B's arond it on the way to his house.
Dropped off some Cortina parts in North Bend,WA -
- just East of Seattle.Nice drive going North from there.
Visited briefly with Dan (europas2),near Everett,WA.
He has an interesting collection of cars,including 2 that
I've owned (a Fiesta,& a Cortina MKII).
Went back down through North Bend,stopping by for a
brief visit with Rick (RickB).Beautiful scenery just out-
-side his front door!
I also have an offer to tow a TD from here to Salem,OR,
so I'll have an empty trailer on the way back,if someone
needs a car towed.
4 days up/back - 1400 miles.Can't wait to do it again.
I'll take the '68 F250 next time!

Re: Seattle Trip

Don,

Sorry,but ran out of time.I had to be at work on
Monday,rather than Tuesday.That changed my plans.
I'm planning on another trip up your way,but I'll
have to see how it goes.
