First up – Bessie and friends reunited for pizza and ice cream in East Troy. Pizza was served up by Roma’s Ristorante. Their four cheese pizza was great, but I couldn’t really taste the pepperoni. Too much cheese? Is that possible? Afterwards, we headed downtown for ice cream at time capsule favorite drug store, J. Laubers. View photos…

Our next adventure brought us to Brew City Grill for their weekly Car Cruise. The MINIs were featured and were in good company with Fiats, a Riley, Porsches, MGs, Corvettes, Muscle Cars and even a real Cobra. View photos…

It was a wonderful day for a Father’s day British car show in the middle of a Sussex, Wisconsin park. Unfortunately, my Dad wasn’t able to bring his little green Mini he’d been working so hard to get done. Oh, she was done alright, but dad wasn’t. He got the call and off to work he went. He arrived in time to see the Morris Minors, the Triumph Stag and the Riley Elf, so I was happy that at least he got a chance to see them at the British Car Field Day.

What’s my Dad do that he gives up a British car show? I’m not quite exactly, but I’m going to guess super hero.

If anyone knows of any other terrific British Car shows this summer in the Southern Wisconsin/Northern Illinois area – let me know!

The Microcar Minicar World Meet 2010 was a fabulous event! It was a wonderful opportunity to see a lot of cars that you just don’t see on the road, much less at your regular car shows. The fascinating array included Vespas, Skodas, Reliants, Crosleys, Rutes, Nashes, Berkleys, Wolseleys, Citroens and even Lloyds. View photos…

After the show, the heat chased us to near-by Kaleidoscoops for ice cream. The cool treat was a welcome respite from the sun. View photos…
