Got the FE out yesterday for a little social.  Lawn chairs 2 meters apart, DQ Blizzard, bench raced with some of the shut ins.  A 1930 Nash coupe was driving by, stopped in to show it off.  Had seven cars show up last week, hopefully more next time.

Wish mine was done...I'd have grabbed a couple of ferries and come by!  Well...that and I would have had to BE on that part of the world...

Cigars and pipes do not get inhaled i to the lungs. At least...not supposed to.

Not supposed to?  Who made that rule?  They do get inhaled.

The only good thing about cigar and pipe tobacco is there are no "exotic" chemicals in them.......

fivesevenliter.....beautiful pic!!! cars and scenery. I bet that felt good to get out.
Today is 1st Saturday of the month........I'm hoping there are a bunch of guys at the monthly cruise in! I finally got my drivers power window working again, so I can close it and get the car washed! It's covered with bugs from my last road trip.
I had to look on a map to see where Abbottsford was, and why Hugh would need a ferry.thought maybe it was on the big island, but I see it would just be a very long drive for him to stay on land. I've been through your area twice...in '98 and '00.

It would take two ferries...one to Vancouver, then one over to the Canadian mainland. Or...like you said...I could make a long drive. Over to Kingston, ferry over to Edmonds, then drive to I-5 and up to Canada and wait for up to an hour or sometimes more to get across the border.
The ferry rides would be spendy...but generally gas in that area is close to $3 a gallon...the drive it's self wold be around 5-6 hours depending on traffic, and the view of the Canadian islands from Vancouver Island to the mainland are really nice. Ferry rides are better!

We are blessed.
Those hills in the background are in the Washington state.  The clouds are blowing in off the ocean and as they stack up on the Cascade mountains they are turning black, which means rain really soon.

Hugh, if you are concerned about using fuel, take the Port Townsend ferry to Coupeville, but make sure you go into Coupeville and get some licorice at the Dutch store.
Also, fuel up on your side of the border.  Consider this, before Covid19BS we were paying $7.14 per US gallon for regular (88), that is converting the dollar at $1.419.
We are bragging now that we are only paying $3.15 Canadian for one US gallon for regular, premium 104 octane is $5.68.

Yea... I know you guys get nailed big time for gas. Amazing how many people cross the border on Saturday and Sunday to go to the Costco  for gas! LOL!!!I hadn't thought about the Coupeville ferry...have to make a reservation for it nowadays, so I never use it. Besides...I DO like the B.C. ferry system. The views are so nice. And it is a peaceful  trip too.

big $ time for gas and cigarettes, but hookers are cheap.

I couldn't take it any longer....I jumped in and started cutting up my '57. I figured now was a good time, no cruises, no shows, no , well..whatever. Apparently the world and life as we know it, has stopped.
Anyways, I figured I have the '39 to use if we ever get a chance to go out, so it was the perfect time to take the cut off wheel and grinder to the Fairlane and bring it back to it's former glory.

Here's a few pics:






So much better....maybe I'll actually be able to sleep tonight for a change.

[mustang6984]

Well...snooze anyway...probably not sound sleep until it has some color back!
