Winter Weekend To Glen Rose

2008.02.09
Coming down a hill toward Joe Pool Lake in Dallas, on our way to Glen Rose, Texas. Four cars, with nine friends repeated the route that our club took last year on Spring Tour.

This idea came about by David and another club member, of what if we took a Winter Trip in the T's. No matter what the weather, unless it was snowing and ice, we would make the trip. The "other" club member had to back out, but those of us that went enjoyed a beautiful February weekend - temps in the low 70's in the afternoons.

Saturday evening we went to check out the water crossings that were too dangerous for the group last May. (Although four cars did do the crossings back in the Spring, the main group did not.) Anyway, this is Patsy in her Shay coming back across towards the group. Tommy (her husband) is filming her down front to the left.


She made it! She did fishtail going across the other direction, so she used a little more caution coming back!

Another crossing. . .


Here's Mitch and then Robert, with us bring up the end. . .


I couldn't resist taking this one as we were crossing - it really wasn't very deep.


Back on dry land.

See the spots. . . this was after the last crossing, yes water on the windshield and into the car! But it was fun.


Here's the big crossing. . . this is the one that the four cars did last Spring - the water is way down compared to what they did - you couldn't see the drop off before.






And out they go.

Check back over the next few days, I'm hoping to upload photos that the others took of the trip.

If you dare. . . check out February 10th - as the final "Splish-Splash" photo of my set!

pdsdville What a cool trip, cool set of cars, and cool set of photos. I live very close to Joe Pool and have been down to Glen Rose a number of times. Love to catch you on the road to take photos.
