Default Fords in the Fall

Now's a good time to show your Ford's on the road in the fall. Here's mine:

Road to Sundance Ski Resort fall of 2007:



Same drive at the top of Alpine Loop. (Took whole drive without 1st or reverse gear - scary.)



At Wasatch Mountain State Park near Midway, UT two years ago.





On the road to Mt. Evans two days ago:



Coming down the east side of Rocky Mountain National Park two days ago:



Going up the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park two days ago:



Sqaw Peak Road off of Provo Canyon yesterday:



Let's see yours. Ain't got any? Get in that old flathead you've just got sittin' around and get out and get us some.

Those sure are beautiful photos. I was just up at my mom's in Sautee, Georgia and the fall foliage is just starting to come out. Hopefully we'll have some good opportunities for photos of our Fords in the Fall when we drive up to Dawsonville, Georgia for the Moonshine Festival October 26th to 28th.

Once in a while it's kinda fun to wax "Artistic" with a photo. Here are a couple of those photos converted to Monet impressionist style paintings that I like. Just a little something different.

Impressionist always do make a good impression in my book. Very well done.

Had a similar experience (not as elaborate) in 2003 when i left Bonneville to go to the Grand Canyon, on highway # 15. Two lane road as far as you can see, with beautiful scenery.
(Had a small camper)

Those are very nice pictures you took. The one in front if the pond could be a post card. Thanks for sharing them.
I did the same thing yesterday after work. I took the old 46 down the road a ways and stopped and took a few pictures all though the trees here aren't in full bloom here yet about a week or two.
