OCTOBERFAST 2015
I'm going to start this thread now, to get you thinking of a final fall drive for the season. There were a few ideas thrown about yesterday at the car show, again trying to fit in peoples schedules, etc. It is just too hard to try to get everyone fit in, so, we will just throw it out as usual. If you have to rescue a car out of somewhere with a time factor, maybe get it the night before and hide it somewhere else (Mike), as we will still try to have our early starts as the day does go by and there still can be some traffic.
I am maybe just thinking of keeping it relatively simple, a nice drive up to the Lookout in Manning and down to the Lake for a photo op if we can, maybe have lunch in the restaurant. Fall colours might be early this year. Or, we do a bigger loop if it is spectacular weather, as we have had some very nice drives into the aspen tree areas. They paved the rough section along the top of the Hope slide to rhododendron flats and it is billiard ball smooth, very nice.
This will be at the end of September'ish or into October, keeping the weather issue foremost.
