Gilmore Car Museum

This was a happy accident. Because I was able to visit the Air Zoo the previous evening, I had some free time on Tuesday morning. I happened to notice a brochure for this museum in the lobby of my motel, and decided to make a quick stop and check it out. Gilmore has a collection of over 200 vehicles, all beautifully restored, displayed in 7 buildings. My planned hour or so visit turned into a bit over two hours, all I could afford, although I could have easily spent more than twice that time. As it was, I rushed through the museum, taking pictures as fast as I could. I did manage to see the entire collection, albeit in a total rush, and came away with over 250 pictures.
