If you’ve been hanging around The Garage long enough, many of you will know that with autumn, the Berkshire Mountains are a siren call for me. From where I live on the Connecticut coast,  it is a delightfully traffic free drive, and as I progressed northward, it was easy to see the progression of the foliage as I ventured deeper into colder climates. For the car obsessed person in me, perhaps one of the finer pleasures of my drive is encountering Alfas Unlimited, in Norfolk, CT.
As a car geek, I’ve owned a lot of cars, but of every car I’ve ever owned, I am possibly most fond of my 1986 Alfa Romeo Spyder, ‘The Graduate’ edition. That delightful red roadster met its match in the form of a raging  blizzard while I was in college in Lancaster, PA. It got so cold the engine block of my Italian beauty cracked. So my annual pilgrimage to the Berkshires is slightly bittersweet, and with a toddler in tow, a Spyder is out of the question, but an Alfa Romeo GTV sure seems appealing! Enjoy the photo gallery, my friends.

Ohhh – the blue Junior has cool written all over it!
You know, the whole frozen block thing doesn't seem right to me. Have non of you people ever heard of prestone? You know, coolant and anti freeze are usually one and the same. Did you have water in there?
