Gibby’s Spring Hill Sugar House in Richmond, RI
A group of several of Little Rhody Model A Club members and
their cars made their way to Gibby’s Spring Hill Sugar House in Richmond, RI on
September 25th, 2013. We
lined up at Wawaloam School on route 102 in Exeter.
About a mile from the school, Bob Osborne pulled off the
road at the Old Exeter Town Hall– most people thought he was just stopping to
take pictures of the Model A in front of the historic building. The group continued on and parked in the usual
place at the farm. When the Osbornes did not arrive in good order, Ray and Charlie
went looking for them and found that something that could not be adequately
investigated or fixed was wrong with the car. Interestingly, Sparky was just driving
by and also stopped to assist. But to no
avail! So, alas, the car, Osborne’s Anna, was towed home. The hard luck
story will continue at the next meeting….
The WEATHER was fabulous for the annual event and the attendance
reflected that.
The Osbornes came back to the farm and joined the Howards,
the Cece’s, the Moscas, Tim and Mrs. Ruth Strickland, the Bowders, Ray and Rosalie
Pagliarini, David Peck and Joyce Armstrong and the Knights for the festivities. At around 1:30, many of the group went to the
Homestead Restaurant in Exeter for lunch.
Great fall day!
