Besides Healeys, another passion of mine is aviation, though I haven't 
flown in a few years.  I've been catching up on my backlog of aviation 
magazine reading, and came across something in the November 2016 issue 
of 'Plane & Pilot' magazine I thought y'all might have an interest in.  
The author is Bill Cox, a noted aviation writer and ferry pilot, and the 
article is about how 'flying never gets old' and is entitled 
'Perspectives.'  He's referring to his first visit to Telluride, 
Colorado, USA:

"My first visit to this tall paradise was over Christmas break in the 
mid-'60s when I was 50 years more athletic, but that trip was in a '63 
Austin-Healey 3000, not a bad ride, but temporarily attached to Highway 
145.  At the time, I barely noticed the difference, as the UNM coeds 
back in Albuquerque loved that little sports car, and accordingly, so 
did I."

Happy New Year to all and have a good ride in 2017.

Bob
