Santa Clara Valley Model T Ford Club

Last Chance Tour
December 2007

I think ole Mother Nature just likes Model T’s. Remember how gloomy, cold and hazy it was on Saturday? Mother Nature was frowning. But on Sunday, Mom smiled and we had a spectacular day, sunshine, cool clear blue sky, and visibility unlimited. Little nippy but the T’s loved it, cool radiators all around.

10 T’s and 1 A showed up at Rancho Shopping Center in Los Altos to make the trek to the Waterfront Restaurant at Pete’s Harbor in Redwood City. They love to see our last chance tour, cause we fill up half the dining room with our hungry T drivers. At the harbor, we found 4 more T’s from the northern reaches waiting for us, and 1 lil ole Nash. We fielded a total of 34 folk for breakfast. Now the question is, where do you sit to get served first. After years of careful study, I got it right this time, and contrary to what some
folks thought, there were no bribes to the waiters, this was a scientific conclusion based on years of empirical data.

Food was good, we had birthday cake (Mark Edwards), kicked tires and putted on home. Great day for Model T’ing. Aren't you glad we don't live in Kansas or Illinois or New York? This is just a popular tour every year, thanks to Chuck Christensen for setting it up.
