Yard sales were everywhere
Main street was closed to vehicular traffic
There was no excuse to go
hungry
Want to be a hit with the younger set?
Do balloon animals
As the afternoon wore on, the crowd kept
growing...
...and
growing!
Some like street rods, some go for custom jobs...
...I'll take a beat-up World War II Jeep for authenticity
If your street rod or custom job gets stuck, it
can pull you out
This '47 Chevy is a familiar sight around New
Hampshire car shows
A rare 1958 Edsel Corsair
1963 Rambler, not very exciting but a popular
economy car in its day
1970 Buick Riviera, definitely not known as an
economy car
This circa 1985 Ford Escort can't seem to decide
which way to go
A country band provides musical background
The next day, the show was moved across the river
to Canaan, Vermont
Where spacious fields replaced the narrow streets
of Colebrook
Luckily, the food concessions came
too
Woodcuts were among the many crafts presented
Old-fashioned weaving
Shoes not required
Birdhouses of all
sorts
Hit the target and dunk the chump
Wagon rides were popular with all ages
The moose calling contest attracted mostly young
Moose burgers proved wildly
popular
Kids enjoyed pony rides
My personal favorite — a 1930 REO
Sold new at J. A. Lewis Auto Sales, Mankato,
Minnesota
As usual, if I like it I have to shoot it from
all angles
A name long gone from the American
road
A beautifully restored showpiece
Trivia fact: REO stands for Ranson Eli Olds, who
introduced the Oldsmobile in
1895, then left Oldsmobile to incorporate the REO Motor Car Company in 1904
An equally well-restored 1931 Model A Ford
A nice little '36 Chevy pickup
A 1937 Ford — I remember my Uncle Brooks coming
to visit in one of these
A 1939 International — I remember when they
were commonplace
Perfectly restored down to the smallest detail
Oops! Caught my own reflection...it was an
accident, really!
