My track at Pattons HQ
« on: August 25, 2013, 08:55:18 PM »
Went out to the Wilson Co fair last week with a friend and his scout car. We set up at the building Patton used as a HQ in the Tennessee maneuvers. Great day and lots of people.

Went for a 40 mile ride yesterday that was awesome as well. Can't wait for cooler weather do my feet won't melt from the engine heat.

Awesome shot!  I love how quaint that old house still looks...rocking chairs and all.  I can't tell you how many gallons of that silver roof paint I applied as a kid...brings back memories!

Here are some plaques about the building. Excuse the poor picture angles as my daughter was given the task of taking them.  She has a lot to learn.
