It's the story of a man why decided to ride a horse from the tip of South America to New York City. He did it in the 1920's and reports the same terrifying rudeness to him and his horses that you and Babbs were getting. Our county seat hosts a major car rally in the summer and it is not unusual for me to find myself behind a line of vintage autos. Life is too short not to enjoy this!

I am about ready to fire up my 1911 Buick for the first time. Got a couple more to work on, a Lexington Minute Man six and a Liberty.

It was a pleasure to meet almost everyone yesterday in Park City. Thanks to Tim for the spin around the block in Babbs. It was a real treat. Any day one can go for a ride in a 100 year old automobile is a good day. I would have hung around a bit more, but Stijnus and Claus needed to get to Salt Lake. I got them over Guardsman Pass and then rode in the Spyker down the other side and down Big Cottonwood Canyon at a fine clip. What a blast. Any day one can go for a ride in a 102 year old automobile is an even better day. Best of luck on the remaining miles of your trip. I'll keep following along here. When you get to Reno and the NAM, give my regards to Jackie Frady and Jay Hubbard and, of course, give The Flyer a pat on the nose for me.

For a good burger and milk shake be sure to stop at Scoopers on Prater Way in Sparks. An old fashion drive-in. Perhaps after the car shop on July 5th! Cindy Ainsworth Oh and my the way.

I love those unplanned stops at diners and cafes. That's the best part of those real Americana road trips whether you're driving in a Maxwell or SUV. Looking forward to your stop in Reno! Say, we have a new AAA ballpark here in downtown Reno. Wouldn't it be great to make an appearance with the Maxwell during the game! Cindy Ainsworth Reno It’s been so much fun reading about the trip.

Sounds like you are coming down to the home stretch. Happy motoring. It’s funny how people can be in such a hurry to go and slow down.. Sounds like you are coming down to the home stretch.

Glad to hear all is well and you're getting some well-deserved R & R! Riding “with you” from this long distance takes its toll, too.
