We will be motoring to our great western country adventure - California - leaving 9/24 and returning 10/10. Captain Marvo has planned terrific stops along the way. Someone said 'go west young man, go west' and so we are! Sorry we can't join you all on this very interesting Bourbon Run. Sounds like fun and it's what we all like to do! We'll be motoring with you but in a different direction!

The agenda is being put together and will be posted shortly. Looks like it should be a real great trip.
We are looking at adding a optional nights stay and doing a winery tour on the way back toward Indy on Sunday. Stay tuned for updates.

I'm planning to go, but probably not for the Sunday portion. Will also have a co-pilot (just don't know who yet...).

A few have indicated they may come down and meet up for the Sunday winery trip. So if you are interested only in that part of the trip let us know.
