Downingtown and the Willows

At The Willows
Yesterday afternoon, my wife and I took the MG for a spin out to Downingtown.

We headed up Goshen/Strasburg to 352.  On the way up Goshen, we saw an orange exotic, I didn't recognize it saw it will go under the unknown category in the tally.  At 352 we made a right turn to head north towards Downingtown.  Soon after that turn 352 forks with Boot Rd which we took and followed all the way to its end at Brandywine Ave on the edge of Downingtown.

We drove around town for a bit, there's not much to Downingtown, and then headed back the way we came.  Boot Rd is mostly rural and wooded with some subdivisions and commercial areas.  The wooded parts were just in full burst of autumn color and made for a great "leaf peeping" experience.  Unfortunately, as will always happen, I left my pocket camera and phone at home, so no photographic evidence of that part of the tour.

When we reached the Paoli Pike we headed into West Chester to get Lucifer some food since he was almost out and he eats like a little bear.   From there we headed back down the Pike to Five Corners for a right towards the West Chester Pike where we hooked up with the Stasburg/Goshen loop.

Once we got home I decided that we should take the car to The Willows for some shots since we had no photos to show for jaunt.  The Willows were mostly deserted owning to the lateness of the hour but that was great for photographing the car.  It was almost the Golden Hour and the sky was overcast so light conditions were almost perfect.  The following photos are from that shoot.








The exotic car tally stands now at 8 Ferraris, 2 Lambos, 2 Maseratis, 2 Cobras, 2 Unknowns, 1 Bentley, 1 DeLorean, 1 Tesla, and 1 MGA
