HOWDY..... fellow Bellettians,

Last week I was treated by a visit of the Oldsmobile society in Mount Crawford Forest. The backdrop of pines made a top setting as they parked on the CFS Airstrip.

Yep, Big 'n flash as America itself! Art of ostentation. They've been doing bling for a long time in the U.S., but you gotta love it. Too few of these examples remain & it's good to see 'em out & about.
Thanks for showing.
Matt.
