Adventures in Caryland

The Old Girl is now wintering in Cary, Illinois for a bit of minor surgery.

 

 

A good trip out there.

 

We set off yesterday evening.

 

 

 

First stage. Meet the parents.

 

 

Then up at three am - Gotta get coffee...

 

 

Bad shot,  but  "Ya Gotta Get Tims".

 

 

Wherever you go people love these cars...

London, Ontario 3.15 am:

 

 

Oh-oooh  red sky in the morning...

 

 

The rain didn't last long. But this thing is:

 

 

Beautiful fall colours,

 

 

There are things you should NOT do in a Rolls-Royce. I broke the rule:

 

 

What shade of red is she, again sir?

 

 

Now the rain - ten minutes from the end of the 900 km journey.

 

 

You need rubbers in this weather...

 

 

 

 

Rodd's place is just what I needed for a Silver Shadow fix.

The car too - rear ride height issues to be resolved.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shadows galore (Wraith II's too)

 

 

 

"Cary on Rolling..."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the Evil Knievel Silver Shadow jump across a shop full of others...

 

 

 

 

I want that for my bedroom wall...

 

 

But onto the serious stuff:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Old Girl is in good hands:
