Memorial Day 5.26.08

This being our Memorial Day I pay tribute to all the men and women who fought for our freedom. The British were the ones who populated our country in the beginning but we turned on them and they invaded us but the USA prevailed. Thankfully, we are now allies in the fight against those who would take our freedoms.

The British invaded Kent this weekend. They picked a beautiful day to make the invasion. The cars made a backdrop for the remembering of our flag of freedom.

The RED, the WHITE
and the Blue.
It was held at the grounds of the Masonic Center. I did a post on this building before.
There were about a hundred cars. The building was decorated with the colors and the American Flag was flying.

The most interesting car to me was this 1959 Morris Minor.
This bright green Spider 1500 made quite the show.
When I think of British cars of the 50's and 60's this green sports car such as this Austin Healey comes to mind.

    Lovely day in honor of the military, thanks.

    The cars are great. We had a red MG convertible back in the 60's what fun that was. Your other animal photos have been great.

    Ahhhh, memories.
