On April 11th I was given the opportunity to get the ride of a lifetime. Here are a few of the shots. All of the on board photos were taken with the P&S...sorry for the quality. I was there for the ride, not so much for the photography.

That was N988C back in 1965 when it was the first Mustang I ever saw and the first one I ever saw fly. I was 5 back then and remember it like it was yesterday.

remember, point and shoots are not bad! even though a ton of "professionals" think so.

#7 you need to level the horizon a little :lol: but other than that they are all great shots!

That must have been a blast, I wish I could go up in a Mustang, let alone just sit in one!

Thanks guys...it truly was a wonderful day.

I found it interesting that the owners don't call themselves owners but instead Care Takers. They understand that they are lucky individuals and that they have a great responsibility to maintain this piece of history.
