...that's a big dog!
Sunday our little mountain town of Monument, CO. had its annual car show. We took my daughter's Transformer Camaro and she probably had 30 different kids sit in it and get their pictures taken by their parents.
I took the '71 Challenger no big deal. Sunny day and the weather was in the low seventies. We had nice shade and the show was over at 1 pm. Still, we had some times of direct sunlight.
Some really great cars. One 72 Charger, a second-gen Barracuda with a modern Hemi, a 1971 'Cuda convertible with a 572 Hemi,and a Mustang like my high school car. Probably 200 cars and they had to turn some away.
We took Diesel the Newfie who was in the shade and had a bunch of water the whole time. We on the other hand got severely sunburned even on a cool day. Hardly anyone noticed my car but Diesel was a big hit. Rosie's served us pancakes and orange juice in the morning and brats, chips, and pop for lunch. Diesel got both meals. He's about 28 " at the shoulders. He loves people, especially children. The only thing we had to be careful of is when he shakes his head he can slime people. Once some people came by and started talking to him. He got up to see them and I was in a chair holding his leash. I had no leverage. The chair and I went tumbling.
The people there were wonderful. I got into many great conversations, even with a couple of Monument police officers.
