In the October 2017 Hemmings Motor News........

I took my yearly day trip up to Bennington, VT back in July for one of the Hemmings Summer Cruise-Ins. The Niner was awarded Favorite Truck for the show. The photo from that night is in this month's Hemmings Motor News.

Re: In the October 2017 Hemmings Motor News........

Definitely a board favorite. How the heck do you go to so many shows a year, or is that total you have been to with your truck?

Bennington Vermont is a neat little city. We have been there a few times in the fall.

No, you read correctly. It's about 90 a year. 2 years ago I did 97. I'm lucky in that I'm usually home from work by 4 and just jump in my truck and go somewhere. and I have a very understanding wife.
And while I'm at these shows, I take pictures. I don't consider myself a photographer per se. I just like taking pics at car shows.
Here's the link to my photo page on Hotrodhotline.com. I'm a little behind in uploading pictures. Right now I'm up to the end of June. http://www.hotrodhotline.com/joe-lajoie
