Chesapeake City MD Car Show pic heavy

Today I attended the Chesapeake City, MD Car Show. The city was established in 1852 or thereabouts on Chesapeake & Delaware Canal.
600 or so cars showed and participated. Needless to say the city was shut down for the show.

Running over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge in the trusty 54 Buick:

Morning Sun!

Arrived in Chesapeake City after a 80 mile drive:

This is the bridge over the canal. It is high enough to allow ocean going vessels to pass beneath. The picture of the house under the bridge will give you an idea of the height:

This is my brother's 1960 Chrysler Imperial Southhampton. Only 45 are registered in the US. Several of them not running. Jackie O drove the same type of car in 1960:

This one is for Neal. Should bring back a memory or two:

Oh my, this was a childs seat from the 50's. Needless to say it was more of a launch pad than a safety seat. The only thing holding the seat up are the two hooks over the back support. We have come a long way...

My favorite car of the day: Desoto Woodie!

Pontiac Woodie:

Coke is it!

Rolling home on the country roads of the Maryland Eastern Shore. I was a great day away from the rat race!

Any day away from work is a great day. But you knew this already.
