I was supposed to work yesterday, but some design approvals hadn't come through from my customer. At 1:00 PM I gave up on the prospect of working (It was 85 degrees and sunny), and decided to go over to Peterborough, Ontario for their Monday night cruise night. I have been to all the local cruises in Barrie, Orillia, collingwood, Bradford, Midland, and Wasaga beach, and wanted to see something different. Now its about 94 miles from my place to Peterborough, and since I am now an official "old fart" that goes to bed about 9:00 PM, I packed an overnight bag, and was going to take a hotel room for the night, over there. It was a beautifull afternoons drive, across winding country roads, over to the ball park at Bridgenorth (about 5 miles north of Peterborough). The quantity and quality of the cars was amazing. Their were 188 cars, ranging from model A Fords right up through to "new" supercars. The people were very friendly, and everybody loved the "Wild Canary". they gave out a whole whack of door prizes, and the show wrapped up at 9:00 PM. It was still bright daylight outside, so I decided that I would drive home. The first 45 miles were great, but then the sun went down, and it got really black, really quick---and pretty darn cool too. Luckily I had my trusty leather jacket in the back with my 2 mandatory fold up lawn chairs. (god, I love that tonneau cover). I made a pit stop somewhere in the country beside a field full of cows and put on the jacket. (Wild Canary has no sidewindows). The trip was great---my only concern was outrunning my rather anemic KingBee headlights and hitting a deer or a porcupine. Fortunately all the wildlife stayed off the highway and I arrived home at 11:00 to a rather surprised wife. It was just a great evening, so I thought I would share.---Brian
