Spring Fling Roundup Saturday
morning dawned bright and clear giving a perfect day for the rally. Most
had breakfast at their B and B's; some were not so lucky. After several
stops and a wonderful lunch prepared by Chef Andre we were off. Of the 21
official entries 15 successfully navigated the sometimes tricky but always
scenic course. Arrival back in Round Top left ample time for rest prior to
dinner. The awards ceremony was held following our authentic chuck wagon
BBQ. A tour of the Sterling McCall car museum beforehand (including an
XK-120) put everyone in an automotive mood for the evening. It's still my
opinion that for a short time that night the best cars were in the parking
lot! On
Sunday morning some met for breakfast at Klumps restaurant, others hustled
to Dallas for the All British Car day while a few of us just enjoyed a
leisurely drive home under the blue Texas sky. During the day on Monday I
flew over the area three times shuttling from Cancun to DFW and it was a
solid cloud cover below us each time.
Certainly Sir William Lyons was looking out for us during this
year’s Spring Fling weekend. Respectfully
