Great story of your trip Tony - I hope we get to hear about the return leg and Hersey as well please!
My sister and I worked in a Vintage Car museum in Strasburg Virginia for a whole summer in 1988 - we stayed with the owners in their Log Cabin which was deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
I worked the restoration shop and my sister at the soda bar and museum - she was 13 and I was 15. The owners were customers of my father (from 'Austin Seven Centre' days) and although they had stayed with us in Bristol two times I find it extraordinary that they looked after us for 6 weeks! I am still in touch with them today.
Keep the pictures coming they are bring back some great memories (and accents!!).
p.s. Their Museum was called 'Bob and Peg's Vintage Tin' and had a big collection of interesting vehicles including a Swallow 2-Seater and an Opal.
