On Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday we toured the communities of Coos Bay, Bandon, Coquille, Myrtle Point and Charleston through some beautiful back country of farms, woods and seaside on gentle country paved roads and very few hills. We enjoyed the local historic and logging museums, antique shops, and shopping in the local and unique shops. We dined together in local restaurants and at coffee breaks in parks. We were treated to a private reception of a private car and airplane collector, and a special concert at the Egyptian Theatre in Coos Bay to hear the almost one hundred year old mighty Wurlitzer Hope-Jones Unit Orchestra organ. A fun time was had by all!

Bill & Mary provided hamburgers and hot dogs, Ted & Elizabeth Aguirre provided tableware, and club members brought side dishes and desserts. Bill manned the BBQ while the rest of us ate, drank, and made merry with stories of cars, cars, and more cars.

West of the Mississippi
On Saturday March 26, 2022, Henry’s Lady Club members joined the State of Jefferson Antique Car Club (SOJACC) and the Model T Club on a tour to the historic Butte Creek Mill and lunch at Mac's Diner in Shady Cove. Butte Creek Mill is an iconic structure that was built in 1872 in Eagle Point, Oregon. It is on the National Register of Historic Places as the last water-powered grist mill, still commercially operating, west of the Mississippi. We enjoyed a guided tour through the old Mill buildings. The finale was a stop in the gift shop to purchase locally milled flour, baking products, and merchandise.

Rand Road Trip - October 2021
On Saturday, October 9, Henry’s Lady Model A Club’s new Tour Coordinator Chairman, John Firth, guided Model A enthusiasts (tourists) out for a picnic at Rand Recreation Site and Boat Ramp, near Galice. Our traditional October tour to the Galice Resort was not an option this year since sadly it burned down last June. But since we have all enjoyed the drive along our beautiful Rogue River through the years, we decided to change only the destination, not the route. Options for lunch in that area are limited, so we brought our lunches and chairs and parked near the river at the Rand Boat Ramp. It was a flawless Indian summer day and we enjoyed the scenic drive, although we were a bit too early for the fall colors this year. Our newest members, Tim Ross and Janet Kepley, also joined us in their 30 Coupe. Other members present were: Dave Williams, Bob Fleischman, Art and Grace Peary, Mike and Debbie McKey, and John and Nancy Firth.
When turning into the picnic area, folks on the tour witnessed proof that Model A’s can “STOP ON A DIME”, as Art did an emergency stop behind John’s car which lacked brake lights at that moment!
