Current - Stowe Vermont Auto Show and Ski Resort

Yesterday we drove to Stowe, Vermont for their car show and check out the ski resort.  Advertising for the show predicted 800 cars in the show and there were many.  But our attendance towards the middle of the second day still had a steady stream of show cars coming, even when we were leaving.  So we didn't see them all.  Another factor was that it had rained most of the previous day and the field was muddy.  We didn't even park our truck in the designated parking area because of the mud.  We parked in a yard (with the owners permission) nearby.

As I said, there were quite a few cars, probably more than I've ever seen at a show.

As we were entering this 1947 Flexible Motorhome was being pulled out of a muddy area by a bulldozer.

There was an area near the beginning of displays where cars with people in historic dress.




Lots of nice cars
















I had a 66' Plymouth Sport Fury and would have loved to have found one here, but this was as close as I could come.
Some more nice old cars.  I love the big Thunderbirds.






A Kaiser-Frazer among the group.










We loved this late 1940's Lincoln and the women owner allowed us a closer look.






And some nice Packards



And this nice Pierce Arrow

We drove up to the ski resort and by the Trapp Family Lodge (from The Sound of Music.)






We haven't had to stop for a cattle crossing in years.
