Driving Miss Betsy. Just turned 95!!
Many will remember my favorite and most devoted passenger for Old Henry - Betsy - that has shown up in many photos with Old Henry. Well, she just turned 95 and is still just as excited as ever to ride. Took her and her friend, Lorraine, on a 6 hour road trip Saturday to one of her husband's ancestor's graves in a remote community here. She's still going strong. She's the one on the left.
She went with us to Death Valley in February 2012: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=62705 On the Mount Nebo Scenic Loop https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=77869 and Mirror Lake https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76069 in July 2012: Our 7° Road Trip to Milford, Utah in December 2012: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=93137 And Bryce Canyon for Valentine's Day 2013: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=97822

Happy birthday Miss Betsy
Professor your pictures show beautiful country. I believe Zion National Park is one of the most beautiful places on earth. The colors, like in Tinkers sample, change every minute or so due to sun position and clouds. Thank you for sharing with us. Bruce

Re: Driving Miss Betsy. Just turned 95!!
Very cool, Professor. We took my mother-in-law on family vacations with us every year after my father-in-law passed right up until she passed away. Would not trade those memories for anything.
