Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
I've been a sucker for Acadians since I saw my first ones at the US Nats in '66. I was walking the streets of Indy on Saturday night and there were two of them parked side-by-side at the Travel Lodge; one Marina Blue and the other Black. I still have that picture somewhere.
Man O Man, there's some NICE Iron at that Cruise! Love the Baby Blue 50 Chebbie, the '54 Merc, the '58 Yeoman, ALL the Canadian Bowties and Ponchos, Geez, it just goes on and on............... but this thing just grabbed me and wouldn't let go. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smirk.gif Thanks a bunch John. Great cars, and some nice camera work! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif [ QUOTE ] http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806200079.jpg [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
I just love the styling on a clean 61 Impala.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
Love that '61. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
We had a lot of cars from Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, as well as Alberta attending. I think the 61 was an Oregon car.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
People seem to like these because they can lean on them and touch them. I wasn't able to get a clear shot at it.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
I have a lot more photos, and some really nice cars, but I think I'm done for tonight. I'll post them in the morning.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
I went there today, great show. Weather forecasting is sure not an exact science is it? Probably a good thing as i forgot the sunblock anyways.
I'm noticing that some of the pix are real recent, like near sunset. I had already left by then to Osoyoos (nothing going on there) and back home. Great location and great show, some really nice cars and many from far away. I noticed some of those millions of SSR's (you say only 67?) were from Arizona. |
Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
I've never seen so many SSR's, and didn't realise there was such enthusiasm for them. I'm glad it wasn't as hot as it was supposed to be either, but still I enjoyed a beer in Salty's in the afternoon.
Here's some more photos. http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210150.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210155.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210154.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210159.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210160.jpg |

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
Here's a really cool station wagon, a 9 passenger 57 Buick Caballero, bought new in Smithers, BC, and with lots of items to add interest.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
This Chevelle is from Oroville Washington, just across the border from Osoyoos. An original L-78 car.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
Here's the last batch. I have a couple of videos that I haven't uploaded yet, but the sun is shining, and I'm going to have my morning coffee outside and enjoy the view.

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
John...thanks again for sharing your handiwork with the lens! You took some aweosme pictures...and it looks like everyone was having a great time!
Nothing better than great cars...and spending time with friends in a beautiful setting! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif |

I've missed most of the events I usually go to this year, and this was the first time I've been back to this one in 6 years. But it was nice to run into people I haven't seen in a while. |
Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
John,
Thanks for posting all those great pics. I almost feel like I had been there. Great cars and beautiful scenery. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif |

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
Here's a video from the cruise. Not the best, but shows a little bit of it. The others don't have much sound.http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...0806210147.jpg

Re: Penticton Beach Cruise
John,
Great camera work! This looks like an awesome location for a car show, does it run Friday through Sunday? This has got to go on my calendar for next year! -Sam |

It's definitely do-able for you, being so close. |
