As Fall is stepping in slowly, winter is not very far away. Our friends planned to take the kids to a park and spend the day out.We happened to know of this vintage car/airplane show and stopped there. It was really good.
beauty.
This plane was made at home.

Can you believe these planes are parked in the garages in front of their homes?
Does this look like a bug? That too a purple bug?
I fell in love with this one
The home owners own these planes.

Hope you all enjoyed the vintage show too!

Old is gold.Nice seeing antiques in running condition.I am remined of my Calcutta days when me,my wife and daughters would take vantage seats on the ground to watch old cars driven at snail speed by people in dress appropriate to the age of cars.Some would splutter and stop and would move after some cajoling.
ReplyDeleteThanks for bringing nostalgic memories
Glad that the post brought some nostalgic moments for you. I didn't intend to write a post on it until I went there and took one snap and then thought, I think I can use them for my blog..:)
DeleteNice to see these vintage beauties, right? (They're pretty noisy though. We saw some at a Forth of July Parade. They were honking away like crazy. It was fun).
ReplyDeleteAnd home made planes too? So cool!
Folsom - Folsom, CA?
Yes Divya, Folsom, CA. You can stop by on your way to lake tahoe next time :) Where do you live in the bay area?
Deleteoh wow... what wonderful cars! :) home made planes.. now that's something.
ReplyDeleteHaha..what a timing? I was posting a comment on your post and you on mine, both at the same time..:) You know what Jas, the best part was how neatly they were maintained. They were so crisp clean, I felt they would get dirty if we even touch them. Yeah, here people are amazing some times.
DeleteThis sure looks like a lot of fun to watch the vintage cars ad airplanes:) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked them. What surprised me was people own them and have their planes parked in front of their homes. Isn't it cool? :)
DeleteAmazing cars and planes..I never knew that anybody could park plane in garage:)
ReplyDeleteMe either...:)I opened my mouth widely when I knew it...haha
DeleteWOWOW.. those are beautiful pictures and the old spitfires .. I would love to have one of those in my garage
ReplyDeletedid you know I did my PPL when i was in india and probably can still fly a small twin engine plane :) although the last i sat in a cockpit was about 10-11 years ago ..
Bikram's
Thank you so much Bikram..No, I didn't know you could fly a plane..how cool is it! I wanted to be a pilot as a kid, but someone told me, I cannot become a pilot as I had glasses..:) now, I think you should buy a plane as you don't have any fridges in your garage...lol
DeleteThat must have been a luxury right? :) Ya, I just wanted to stare at some of them like that. Maintaining them so immaculately was the best part and getting them there for exhibition from different parts of the country is another wonderful thing.
ReplyDeleteThundering Typhoons! How on earth did I miss this beautiful post? I am sold over the red and the puple beauties. Terrific photographs, Latha!
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never..:) Thanks for stopping by. Isn't the red one terrific? I think hubby should have some more pics in his cell. I will post them if I can find any. We didn't take our camera. I shot this from my cell phone, looks like it did a good job..Many thanks to you. :)
DeleteLovely photos. The purple one was cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jaish. Yes, it is. :)
DeleteWOW WOW WOW. This is a visual treat!

DeleteWow--planes in front of the house? Where do you stay? I have never ever ever seen such things..of the cars, I think I love the purple the most--the quaint bug-:)
ReplyDeleteI live in Folsom as you know, but this place is called Cameron Park. Check in google maps, I think you should be able to see them..I know, even I was surprised and shocked..:)
