Met them all this morning at the Colony Hotel in Kennebunkport! Actually
paraded them out onto their chosen route of the day using my '46 MG-TC as
the lead car. Great fun seeing all those fine Healeys and nice folks.

That would have been Smith Brody with his wife Esther, I would guess. He
went
cross country and participated in the Montreal F1 parade (see the article on
that in the latest Austin-Healey magazine), so would have just continued on
to
Vermont. Go, Smitty! Old Guys Rule!
