    We Held a Car Show and a Pipe Band Showed Up

    As many of you know, The Wizard is the proud owner of an XJS Jaguar Convertible, which he allows me ("affectionately referred to as SWMBO" in previous posts) to admire.

    Today we attended The Southern Vancouver Island Old English Car Show. It was held at Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site, which is a 19th century coastal artillery fort with a lighthouse.

    Over 150 classic cars, dating from the 1930's to the present showed up.

    During the day the Saanich Peninsula Pipe Band played.

    Now, I did not know anything about cars before going to this event, but I did admire quite a few of them...
