Depending on the day and mood, we can crank in some miles and enjoy the scenery or we can make frequent stops to enjoy the small towns we will be driving thru. I've never driven this entire route in one shot but have always wanted to so here's my chance. I hope everyone enjoys the day. See you Saturday.

There's a lot of cool small shops in Taylors Falls. A few years ago, my family spent a weekend there for my parents' 25th anniversary. I don't know about any of the other towns, but I think spending some time in the shops would be a good way to keep the women interested, and supportive of our hobby

I just got home... it was a great time

We had a pretty small group, which was good because we kept getting spread out from the traffic. Everyone had a good time.

There was one wussy who drove his new car because his chevelle doesn't have a heater, and he didn't want his little fingers to get cold... :p *cough* Steve *cough*

To be fair to Steve, he wasn't the only wussy who didn't drive his Chevelle. But, he probably had the best excuse.
