Yesterday the city of Battle Creek held its annual Cereal Festival, and at the festival were a series of classic cars from different eras on display from the owners.  I had to take some time and snap a few photos.  Some of the car owners had some pretty funny props with their cars, and those were amusing too. 

Approximately 10,000 people visit the cereal festival each year and take part in the free cereal donated by Kellogg's, Post and Ralston Foods.  Volunteers serve the cereal, milk and if you get there early enough, bannanas and pop tarts. 

This year, I have been on a diet, so I was not able to take part in the food, but I did take some time to walk around and take a lot of photos which will give me great content this coming week for my blogs.  Meanwhile, enjoy the cars... More to come...

Hi Michael, it is amazing the things they do to these older cars.  There are always some beauties among them.  Congratulations on getting out for the exercise and fresh air.  Keep up the good work!

Michael,

I haven't been to an auto show in a very long, loooooooooong time. I really enjoyed them and this one looks like it was a good one.

I remember when I was in my teens and early twenties, I'd find the best sport cars and sit behind the wheel and ask random people to take my picture. I was such a dreamer and nuts about cars!

Those Dalmatians are cute, but I do hope they are stuffed ones and not real.

Michael,

Those car shows demonstrate part of our history as well as the dedication people have for restoring them. :)
