4th of July and Apple Pie

As American as Apple Pie and the 4th of July is the American Automobile.

This 4th is the Lincoln County Firefighters Car Show in Wiscasset, To Benefit J. Gordon Regional Training Facility(Put on by the Lincoln County Fire Fighters Assoc.) a more than American Pastime, supporting our Firefighters. But let us not forget the other events of the weekend which include a 4x4 Jamboree at Hunnewell Valley, the second installment of the Maine Coastal Cruisers Saturday Cruise Night in Biddeford and of course all the Throwback 60's hippies in Oxford for the Nateva Festival (someone needs to tell them that the Grateful Dead has broken up and Jerry Garcia is now an ice cream flavor at Ben & Jerry's).

The Wiscasset show is a first for the Association but is being helped along the correct path by some veteran car show people and may prove to be a good day.

On Monday we have a favorite of mine and that is the Front Street Shuffle in Bath. It is Not A Show, but more like a gathering of Gearheads with the intent of showing off their respective rides to a large crowd of spectators and eat more than their share of wholesome Fair Food. Always a great time.

A word of caution. It is supposed to be HOT and Humid on Sunday and more so on Monday. Stay Cool if you can. Hydrate even if your not thirsty. Watch yourselves and try not exert yourselves.
