Mt.Washington vintage race




Race day on Mt. Washington. This is the Ying and Yang of my life. My Dad loves racing, my Mom loves QUIET. On occation they compromise, Mt. Washington vintage auto race is the best way to find both. Sat. night we slept in the van in the White Mts. Sunday morning...6:00am (?????????are you sure these are my "sleep in" parents??) Anyway, at Mt. Washington early to meet Dad's racing buddy who was racing his car, he also races his motorcycle up Pike's Peak in July (had it with him,I got to sit on it (see pic) ) Dad usually goes with him. It poured all day, thought the guy who has the vintage car with the licence plate that read "RAIN"...says it all! Rained for the whole race, but let up later in the day. Our trip home through the moutains was awesome....Mom got her "QUIET"...Dad got his racing and I, Moxie the Aventure Dog got afternoon sun to bask in all the way home. AAAAHHHHH! We did stop on the way home to take a picture...anyone know why someone would park their car in a pigpen??(see picture)

Hey Moxie,
Glad you and the folks could join us for some racing at Mt Washington! I see you Mom was taking good care of you holding you under her rain coat - good thinking. See you next year?

Thanks for the note on our smart car today (9.28.08). Raining agian but a GREAT day to be out watching the fall foliage on the High Water Trail! Enjoy!
