THE ROAD UNCORKED

 What fun it was when Fay and I got "mixed up" with a bunch of folk from Southern California on an unrally.
Steve and Marianne invited us to join with the others - Triumph, Jensen, Jag, Alphas, Porsches, MB, BMW etc. Our black Dodge Challenger (rental) stood out but the other drivers were very understanding. 

 Not many Jensens around these days. This one was in good nick.

 The MB followed by one of the Alphas. Roads were windy, bit narrow and fun to drive. Reminded me of our local highways here in Australia.
 Even Fay - the World's Best Navigator - showed she can handle the behind-the-wheel action now and then.

 Here, the 2 Alphas and the Porsche rest in San Miguel till tomorrow.

 Doug's Porsche. A lovely addition to the gathering.
 What better colour for the Jag - British Racing Green.


 We checked out the Mission at San Miguel. In pretty good condition for its age.
 Talking about age, here's a 1907 Lancia. One of its most recent trips was New York to Alaska car rally in 2012. The owner - and his daughter - have racing in their blood.

 No car gathering would be complete without a Morgan to grace the line-up. A lovely finish on this one.
Thanks Steve and Marianne for including us. We had a heap of fun. The Road Uncorked 2014!
