So it's Thanksgiving Monday and the temperature is an unseasonably warm 20C or so. What is one to do?

First find the nearest available Autoshare Mini Cooper convertible and snaffle it.

Then drive off into the countryside and take pictures of fall foliage.

Lots more like that on Flickr!

Actually the real plan was to go for a hike on the escarpment but both Rattlesnake and Hilton Falls had long lineups of cars trying to get in so we headed up towards Terra Cotta and managed to find somewhere a bit less crazy.

It doesn't get much better than belting along in a convertible with Stan Rogers playing full bore on the stereo.

Stan Rogers! I bet you were singing along, too.

Lovely pix! [livejournal.com profile] loupnoir got to see the fall colours of hardwood forest last year on Cape Breton Island - she had never experienced that before.

Yeah I was pointing right at Queenston (albeit 50 miles away) when "McDonnell on the Heights" came on.

Convertible for a day, no worries about getting the top slashed when you park it? MADE OF WIN.

And no worries about limited alround visibility when one has the top up! I'm loving this Autoshare thing. Need a car with carrying capacity to do the supermarket/beer/LCBO run? No worries. Need a cargo van? No worrries. Nedd a spiffy convertible? ditto
