This is what I like. The two of you must of turned some heads - caused some "Rubber Neckin" and for sure a Smiling Wave ( or two ).
I moved the Black De Soto to another part of this site which shows Forward Look MoPars Towing.

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada | Gorgeous scenery made better with the cars! We drove through the Canadian Rockies in 2007. Those turquoise waters from the glacial silt are amazing in color! |

Thank you. Yes, while at the campground a lot of other campers came by for a chat to inquire about the cars and Jeff's vintage trailer.
Happens to all us classic car owners, always so nice , isn't it.
Thanks for the link, that Forward Look MoPars Towing shows real neat photos, wasn't on there yet, so we'll check it out more.

Great, hope you can enjoy the Canadian Rockies again sometimes.
We always drive through the Rockies for the Radium Hot Springs B.C. car show in September with lots of cars coming in from Alberta (and B.C.), therefore tons of classic cars on the Highway to see, just perfect. |

| Inspiring pics, Snow White...your Saratoga with that nostalgic soft blue and white paint is so photogenic, especially like the one with the dark blue sky behind. We're fortunate to have such incredible natural Landscape not too far away. It was a wonderful camping trip with great friends. Looking forward to Radium!

Location: ST. Stephen NB Canada | Definitely beautiful country. The rear window shot looking west looks very familiar. Any chance that this picture is about a half hour drive from Canmore? Even though I live in the east, I get a bit home sick. A couple of my sons & their families live there. |

The photo # 3 is taken along HWY# 11 West of Rocky Mountain House, leading into the Rocky Mountains towards the Icefield Parkway (scenic road between Lake Louise and Jasper) . We live near Rocky Mountain House, a 1.5 hour drive from the picture spot. |

Location: ST. Stephen NB Canada | Beautiful. We have been to Lake Louise, but have not made it to Jasper yet. Perhaps next year when we come out. Last year we went to Drumheller to see the museum.

All those places are worth a visit for sure, world famous Banff and Jasper National Parks are easy to travel with a Classic Car, and the Foothills and Prairies
are gems as well. |
