From fire trucks to custom hot rods, the annual Vintage Vehicle Show scheduled in conjunction with the Arts Festival offers something for everyone with an appreciation of the classics. Pictured here is the interior of Anacortes resident Fred Miller’s 1956 Thunderbird, the only model to include the rear-mounted spare tire. The headlight/grill photo is a closeup of a blue and black 1937 Plymouth truck. Next is a gorgeous 1941 Chevrolet Special Deluxe, and finally there is a row of just a few of the beauties lined up Saturday for viewing. They all look great under the summer sun!
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
