WOW! Beautiful pictures of a beautiful car in the most beautiful area in the world.

In the 18th picture, I think the Yellowstone River is meandering away from Yellowstone Lake. Please forgive my nit pic. Your whole presentation is excellent.

Right you are. Thanks for the "nit pic." Don't mind it a bit. I like to be accurate. I fixed my original post accordingly.

Tia must be a bit bigger than Pepe. Pepe can only just barely peek over the window sill with his front paws on the arm rest. Looks like Tia's got a few inches on him. Pepe's only 6.5 lbs. But I love 'im.

Our mothers think alike. I have a 47 Mercury that I bought in 1967. When I told my mother I was driving it to New Orleans, she asked, "Is that car ready for that trip?"
Me: "No, but it will be an adventure.
She said, "Every trip in that car is an adventure."
Thats right, mom.
