Hello, Jason here
So my Dad and I tried doing the tour last year, I had to move for a job and life got in the way... so this year is looking way more promising. We have a backup vehicle if his 68 C/10 Short Step does not get completed, my 70 GMC Shortwide Fleet. So we are looking at the stops on the tour, Dad is from Carolina so the meetup will be easy. Now we are lookin for stuff to do during the tour. Charlotte is easy: NASCAR Hall of Fame, from there it's Knoxville and we are gonna stop at Volunteer Vette, Charleston is my Dad's home state he will visit family. The Summit Motorsports Park in OH well that is an all day event walking thru that, but we are gonna try to squeeze in the Cedar Point Amusement Park. On to the way to the stop in Indiana in South Point there is an RV Museum in Elkhart then onto the Studebaker Museum in South Bend. Then it's on to the fairgrounds in Indiana, only thing we found to do in IN is go to my Dad's old stomping grounds St Charles. Mess around a bit there get some pizza maybe try to get into the Caterpillar Assembly Plant Aurora, Illinois. Now the Casino thing I am not too too interested in, I don't really do the gambling thing too much so I will find my own thing to do I guess :D Then the Dells to ride the ducks. LETS DO THIS!!
Anyone have any suggestions on what to see? What time do we HAVE to check-in by everyday to get our stamps. We are going for the Long Haul Award just an FYI.
