Hugh Piggott 2004 the trip home

Last days..Stopping in Portland, then heading home.

Of course, we did have to get back home to our own dogs eventually, but we opted to stop in and visit some old friends in Portland on the way home. We used to deliver pizzas out of the same shop...and we all drove old Volvos, but they went and moved on.... Of course, some things never change. Scott has a nice old Volvo P1800 that hadn't run in a year or so, so we helped to get it runnig. Dave also lives out there, and is still driving his old 122s. Great car hes got there....


Here is Scott's '62 P1800. He bought it here in Colorado, and he should be driving it soon. That's him standing on the far side smiling....


And here is Dave's faithful 122s Volvo... great car that runs perfectly. Though Dave may argue otherwise....


We went out for dinner with Scott and Dave... clockwise... DanB; Scotty; DanF; Dave; and I'm behind the lense where I prefer to be....


A brief pick session after supper....


Then it was time to relax.... Scott's dog has no pride, and was glad to clean DanB's feet... Dan was happy. We were disgusted, but entertained.


Scott... Keeper of his own castle.


Went back along the Columbia River... past the power plants etc... Nice drive. Was a fantastic trip, I'd do it again in a second. But of course, it was nice to get back to our own normal dogs....
