We had a car show at the Nursing Center where I work last week. It was a nice, sunny day, which hasn't happened often lately. Most everyone likes to see these old cars, but for our older residents there are memories attached to them too so they really enjoy this. They can't get out to car shows, so it was really nice of these car owners to come to us.
Here's a few of the cars that came. I like the older cars best, but some people enjoy the cars from the 60's. There was one car that was built in 1989. If that's an antique, what am I? :)
Our residents had such fun. They had popcorn and lemonade, and many enjoyed just being outside and watching the activity.
I love old cars...we see a lot of them in the summer!
ReplyDeleteVery cool . . . I know that your residents loved it, especially the men :)
ReplyDeleteMy dad and I always loved car shows. How kind of these folks to share their treasured cars with the residents. Thanks for the great photos.
ReplyDeleteThat is cool. I love old cars especially the 56 Nomad. smiles
ReplyDeleteI'm BACCKK!lol What a fun thing for the residents who are able to enjoy it. I am sure those cars were a big hit with the men.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have this event for the residents and the car owners.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Mari, we must be antiques also (even though I'm quite a few years ahead of you). :)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the old cars, and sometimes makes me wish I'd kept the 55 Chevy I had. LOL

Girl what we are, is CLASSICS. Haahaaha! Seriously this is a wonderful idea and I know the residents loved it. I too love old cars ... doesn't everybody? And thank God for His beautiful sunshine. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun thing to have at your facility! I love old car shows and I believe if it is 25 years old (or older) it is considered a classic. I'm happy to be considered a classic! LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that the car owners could come to you. I'm sure it brought back a lot of memories and stories for you residents.
ReplyDeleteThat is so special that the residents are able to see these old cars and enjoy the memories that go along with what they see.
ReplyDeleteOh what fun!!
