 Glad you didn't mind all the honking during this leg of the tour   Ah, the next guy to listen to all of Steve's honking!  So glad the busses were represented on the tour!  Hey, isn't this Marie's drag bug that you're driving, Bren?  awesome lineup! |

I am very glad that everyone had a fun time.
A big thanks goes out to Dave (81pumagtc) for suggesting and arranging Uncle John's Cider Mill and to Art (drwingtipshoes) for the suggestion of checking out Westphalia MI.

Thanks to AJ, Dave and Art. It was a good location for lunch and nice rout plan. I was surprised to see the sign of the town, Westphalia. This was the longest drive for my bus(Automatic). The bus performed very good. I checked the gas mileage and it was 16.9 mpg.
After 5 hours drive, I was exhausted when I got home.

After 5 hours drive, I was exhausted when I got home. You weren't the only 'old fart' that was tired....  ...but it was a great day, wasn't it? Best to all.. PS Angel Eyes was tired too - went straight back to the bedroom and made himself right at home!! ;D |
