From July 25 to 28 the NW Region had another successful mini meet. A big thanks to Larry and Avalea!
It was great to see everyone at the registration. We had 22 members and 9 automobiles. The meet was at the Silver Reef Casino in Ferndale, Washington. We found that Jim Orcutt was unable to get a trailer for his travels to Ferndale, so he drove his 1919 Roadster from Anacortes to the Casino. He made it all the way. Way to go Jim.
The next day we started the meet by going to the Puget Sound Antique Tractor and Machinery Association displays and show grounds. There we learned about farm equipment of the past. Next, on to visit several private collections of interest located in the surrounding communities.
On Friday we made the trip to Lynden, Washington. Here we visited the Lynden Heritage Museum. We saw several displays of historical items including store fronts and businesses from the past. A little history of country music and history of agriculture. In the afternoon we visited a private collections of brass era automobiles. Very beautiful and interesting.
On Saturday we started by getting some exercise by walking the beautiful trail at Zuanich Point Park. Then on to the Old Settlers Picnic at Pioneer Park. We were entertained with live music, a car show and lunched at several food booths.
Then we said our goodbyes and headed home. Next year, the plan is to meet in the Olympia.
