Sadly, some have lost their heart as development and times changed, luring vibrant businesses away and with them, the people whose footsteps and heartbeats defined the place.

Jaguars, Mustangs, Cooper Minis, ’57 Chevies, Cars, autos, autoMObiles, vehicles, anything on wheels. Our local parade organizers, in recognition of this propensity, began limiting the number of beloved junkers that had no special import other than the owner’s sheer fondness for the rides and styles of yesteryear.
