Ignite The Nites





Ignite the Nites is a great way to spend the hot summer nights in Libby, if you are at all a person who enjoys automobiles. This celebration is sponsored by a local car club called the Igniters. Friday afternoon the fun begins at 5 p.m. when Mineral Ave. is shut down and turned over to the 130 some collector cars and their owners. They spend a few hours driving back and fourth displaying their machines. The ones that can do so are allowed to burn off the tires. It was interesting and provided a glimpse into a world in which $4.00 a gallon gas has got to take some of the fun out of celebration. The celebration goes through the weekend and includes numerous activities.

Those cars look like a couple of cars that my hubby had when we were young...without the striping flames though....once my hubby and I went to the movies and he used his dads green Hudson car.... we parked on the street downtown, and as a gentlemen, he went around to open the door for me, and it came off in his hand.....we laughed so hard, and had to miss the movie to take the door home to his dad... judy
