Thank you so much for sharing those shots, Annie! Does your chapter always do these drives on Sundays, or do they also go out on Saturdays?

No Blossoms here yet either. But very soon. Yesterday was shirt off while working in the yard day. Sun felt good on the bare skin.
Will be working on Studebakers outside soon.[8D]

We're always about a month behind the Valley up here... However, the drive up St. Hwy. 299 is really worth the effort in the spring.

After lunch we continued east on 180 to Wonder Valley thru Wonder Valley to Piedra Road skirting the lower Kings River back to Belmont avenue to the new Freeway 180 West back to town.

Route changes slightly each year, as some orchards are replaced and to keep the locals from getting bored of the same route.
