The Rendezvous was excellent, with lots of Healeys from all over including Georgia an New Mexico to name a couple. Sunday we were able to meet many people from all over the continent. We were not the only ones with dogs either, a couple from CA had two Daxies with them but they trailered there car up several other people also had dogs with them.

There was another Florida Green over White car there also a very nice BN6, lots of red and black and combinations as well the most common car was the various shades of BGR (British Racing Green). The most common car was the BJ8 most done to the 9's. The most common thing was the love for these beauties the owners have. The star of the show for us was the fabulously restored Nash Healey out of Alberta just spotless and a thrill to see such god job. And I would be in deep trouble if I missed the 100/4's they were terrific a real testament to the appreciation these people have for there cars.

2012 Rendezvous Parksville BC this weekend and next week

June 24 Laura and I are heading to this years Healey  Rendezvous in Parksville just a couple hour north of our home. At this point it appears that there is going to be about 100 Healeys there. The venue is Tigh Na Mara Lodge a very well known and beautiful lodge. The interesting thing is we are taking  two small dogs, Chianna and Seeker, not sure how we will fit in all that we need. So when I get it figured out I will take a picture so you can do it when you have the same predicament. I am hoping to be able to post to this blog about the Rendezvous as well as our travel blog at http://aaronandlaurasholiday.blogspot.ca up there I think the Starbucks has Free WiFi at least. We plan on staying Sunday, Monday, and most of Tuesday before we come home, our house sitter has other things to do on Wednesday .

Closer and closer to being done

Over the last month or so I have been working on the car trim and upholstery. I have got all the upholstery done and most of the trim except for the cockpit surround and a few small trim plates. As usual there are a couple of things that that I can't get there from here and something has to be a different order and way. I guess some day I will learn all the tricks. I don't think I have time to though








Laura and I have been going for drives on nice days and enjoying the results of my labour, and we are having a great time just wish the weather gods would warm it up a little.
