49 DeSoto, Haliburton Fall Festival Car Show, October 2009

Karen needs the computer to write report cards for the Grade I class she is currently teaching, and I am down with the galloping crud, so it might take me a day or two to get around to everyone. But don't worry, I will get around to see you. You're my buds.

 

Took this picture while on the Haliburton Studio Tour last month.

 

The DeSoto was a brand of automobile manufactured and marketed by the Chrysler Corporation from 1928 to 1961. The DeSoto logo featured a stylized image of Hernando de Soto. For you comic buffs, Cosmo Fishhawk in "Shoe" drives a 59 DeSoto, and Ernie in "The Pirhana Club" drives a 57 DeSoto.
