Can Be A Nut Drive & Campfire Hootenanny

(Cascade Canadian Whidbey Island Chuckanut Drive)

July 12 & 13, 2008

Attention all Washington, Canadian, and Oregon Healey lovers. We have a summer outing planned and you are invited. What could be better than a curvy tree-lined Healey tour with views of the Sound and the Cascade Mountains? Friends and guests gather ‘round for evening of fun, with BBQ and s’mores around a campfire. We have includes a Hootenanny but we probably won’t sing, but we could. Then, on Sunday, a tour down Whidbey Island which is the 3^rd longest in island in the US and recently featured in the “New York Times” as one of the most unique and scenic places in the country.
