Classic Cars, Vintage Planes and a Happy Grandpa

Despite some confusing construction-related road closures, I managed to finally make to Georgetown Municipal Airport on Saturday for their annual Classic Car and Vintage Aircraft Show.   Judging by the crowded parking area, others were successful as well.   That’s a good thing because this event collected donations for a great charity, the Wounded Warriors Project

.   Both the cars and the planes were a site to behold.  I don’t know much about aircraft, but the World War II-era B-25, the centerpiece for the Commemorative Air Force Devil Dog Squadron, is a work of art that’s still going strong.   The cars in the show were so well-preserved, I was in awe.   Unfortunately, I didn’t see any 1969 Plymouth Road Runners!   I had one, purchased brand-new by my parents when I was a senior in high school for the grand sum of $2,900.   If only I’d known they’d be so valuable, it would still be with me.  Alas, the choices we make.   One person having a grand time, pictured in the opening shot, was 9-month-old Savannah Fuller, riding in the wagon specially made by her dad, Matt Fuller, who was one of the car show entrants, showing off his 1965 Mustang convertible.   As I was leaving the show, I noticed a hammock spread between a couple of oaks.   There I found two-and-a-half year old Baron Young sound asleep, resting peacefully in the loving arms of his grandpa, Chris Young.  Little Baron was pooped, but Chris commented “He just loves cars, motorcycles and planes!”   He’s obviously pretty fond of grandpa,   too.  These photos were taken for the Williamson County Sun.
