There was also a car show

In addition to the music for this weekend, there was a car show that brought in 135 cars. We hear that the number is down from 165 from last year, but 135 sure filled up a couple of streets in this small town.

A few dressed on their hippy era attire. On his pocket is printed "love, peace, joy". Oh for the hippy days.

This one is for Diane,

and this one is for Billie.

 

This may be the oldest one there.

We had been staying in the Fossil Motel but had to move out on Friday because guests were due in for our room. We loved that room! Nice and big, a kitchen and big fridge, comfortable beds. Ann, the new owner gave us a great little spot for our sleeping tent and our screen tent, so we set up our own little compound for the remainder of our stay.

 

When on our adventure vacations, I think I have mentioned that we do errands by bike, and basically use our bike for most all local transportation. That would include hauling our lawn recliners to the court house lawn to hear some music...

 

 

Ann was becoming convinced that we would become residents of Fossil as we kept extending our stay (originally booking a room for one night, and staying five), but the time did come for our departure.

If ever you are in Fossil, or when you decide to go for the very fun Bluegrass Festival, look up The Fossil Motel, and sleep in a Fossil bed. It will not be hard to find in this small town, and you will love the owners.

 

 

 

 

Now back to the car breakdown. The car salesman brought us and our bikes to the motel in a pick up truck, Susan went to the store for some food and drink items, we are showered and feeling a little better than when we first got here. We will bike back to the Ford dealer tomorrow - with hopes that it is an easy and inexpensive fix. We can dream can't we ;'-) Will post reality tomorrow.
