\n<\/p>\n\n\tHello from Price, UT\n<\/p>\n
\n\tThursday evening – August 15, 2019 (Second post of this travelogue)\n<\/p>\n
\n\tThis morning’s post was made from the salt with a signal that was not all that great. In addition to having issues with some of the photos, I knew that it might be difficult to upload the photo files. Thus this second post.\n<\/p>\n
\n\tI am staying at the Holiday Inn in Price. I also stayed here on the way out last Sunday.\n<\/p>\n
\n\tOne of the fun aspects of Bonneville events is the amazing array of non-racing vehicles. The photo below shows a neat car\/trailer combination. They camped next to me one night and then we parked together on the salt to watch the runs. It is a really neat family with two daughters who traveled all the way from Michigan – via Yellowstone and other neat stops. It really brought back memories of taking the girls to Illinois in the 56 Chevy in 1987.\n<\/p>\n
\n\t\n<\/p>\n
\n\t \n<\/p>\n
\n\tIn the last post I mentioned that I was “camping” on this trip. The two photos illustrate my “camp”\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
\n\t \n<\/p>\n
\n\tSo was the trip fun? Let me count the ways:\n<\/p>\n
\n\t1) I got to drive a butt kicking Hemi Charger!\n<\/p>\n
\n\t2) The Charger has a USB connected to the stereo system so I got to listen to my music from my phone (over 1000 songs)\n<\/p>\n
\n\t3) I “survived” my camping experience rather well.\n<\/p>\n
\n\t4) The freeze dried meals were pretty good and I got to have a bit of scotch and a Cuban cigar each night (actually one half of one each night). If you follow our blog you will recall that I bought some Cuban cigars in Croatia (yes it is legal). I am not at all a cigar connoisseur but they seemed pretty much like my much less expensive on-line cigars.\n<\/p>\n
\n\t5) I got to see a lot of great cars and some good runs. Even if the salt limited the big speeds, the sights and sounds of the fast cars is beyond description.\n<\/p>\n
\n\tSo the answer to the question is: HELL YES!\n<\/p>\n
\n\tNext year I hope the bus and truck will be ready and then I can take Pat with me.\n<\/p>\n
\n\tThat is all for this trip<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
