Every Picture Tells a Story, Don’t It?

Yes, in the words of Rod Stewart (who few people realize is the illegitimate half brother of racing legend Jackie Stewart and who was actually baptized "Connecting Rod Stewart" but shortened it for professional reasons), "Every picture tells a story, don’t it?" And so, except to say that AONE had a terrific gathering on August 4 at the New Hampshire Vintage Celebration, saw lots of classic cars and took in lots of racing, savored barbecued chicken and all the trimmings for 25 or so Alfisti, hobnobbed with the racers and each other, and generally had a grand old time, we’ll let the pictures do the talking.
