Nine
Model T’s, drivers, passengers and well-wishers met at Barbec’s
on Sunday, June 5th to start the 7th Annual Tour to Waxahachie.
Well-wishers included Royce and Ann, Prestley and Jay Klehfoth
who was in town for the weekend. It was wonderful to meet
the man who oversees the publishing of the National Vintage
Ford Magazine. Those of us who enjoyed breakfast had to
do so inside this year. It was blowing and pouring rain
during breakfast, but by 8:30 it had stopped, the roads
were drying out as we loaded up and head south.
We
had an uneventful trip, no flat tires or breakdowns. Once
parked on the square there was one person who did, FINALLY,
change the tube on his right front tire. We went our separate
ways, some touring homes, some roaming the antique stores,
some going to the craft fair.
After
meeting back at the courthouse we left in two groups for
Braum’s. . .the little ice cream shop on the square is gone!
We regrouped there and headed ‘em north. We were delayed
by a stalled train coming into Dallas, but our tour host
guided us around this obstacle and we headed in our different
directions for home.
Thank
you to Andy and Juanita for once again leading this wonderful
day trip. We are looking forward to beer biscuits and the
trip to Waxahachie again next year.
