Top 25

The 30th Annual Ticonderoga Car Show was held on Sunday and we took the SSR and entered it in the judging. People also bring along their matching trailers, so Dave couldn't resist making the perfect duo of the yellow SSR and his latest acquisition, a 14 ft. mahogany 1956 Aristocraft Torpedo with an iconic 1959 Mercury 45 hp Mark 58A outboard motor. 

We had quite the onlookers around the car and boat all day. We were going to leave before the awards, but we had so much fun talking with neighbors and car enthusiasts, that the time flew by. It was a good thing we waited because we ended up getting a plaque as one of the top 25 judged vehicles. In fact we just missed being in the top 10 by a few. That is pretty commendable for our first show! 

It was a gorgeous day and more vehicles turned out than anyone had seen in many years (somewhere around 300). What a perfect venue in Bicentennial Park with the lower LaChute waterfalls in the background. Kudos to the Adirondack Trail Riders who put this event on, and to the many local sponsors.
