Vancouver Chapter Boxing Day 2008 (in March)

After being snowed our in December, the Vancouver Chapter decided to re-run the 2008 Boxing Day Tour - on March 8!  Fifty-one cars showed up on a chilly morning to make the annual run around Stanley Park.  After circling the park, most of the group headed out to Port Coquitlam to visit the Teamsters Union Freight Transportation Museum, where there was lots to see and do.

It was first time out for several cars - the Watson's 48 Cadillac and the Findlay's 33 REO, 35 DeSoto, and 55 Cadillac.  It was also the first Boxing Day drive for 16 year old Stephen Morgan, driving his grandfather's 55 Cadillac.

After a sunny drive, the skies clouded over and by mid afternoon snow began to fall.  By the time some members returned home, several inches had accumulated - a fitting end to a Boxing Day tour!
