I'm preparing for this year's road trips, despite some new health issues ("mass" on liver, left arm/elbow pain, jaw pain, reoccurrence of irregular/too fast heart beat) and looking for a new job (etc).... Ironically, I haven't been to a cruise night in this area (Elgin, etc., IL) yet ... nor am I very organized at getting plans together for 2006 ... including a list of IL-IN-WI-IA-MI car shows/events, etc.....
Hmmm...would also love to organize a gathering to see the movie "Cars" ... I've seen it, but would love to see it again, considering it features a '76/'77 MC as one of the announcers, has a great commentary on RT 66's "demise" after interstates (particularly I-40) were built, and features some great scenery!
Anyway, my 2006 road trips are not as long as either of my major road trips the last 2 years (October 2004, west via MO-KS-CO-WY-UT-NM-OK-TX-AR; August 2005, east via TN-AL-GA-SC-NC-VA-PA-NJ-MD-WV-OH-MI-IN) ... but, they're road trips (thankfully) nonetheless.... And, I may be able to add more in the future...we'll see. Heh...sure wish I had time to include a trip along Rt 66, which I really want to drive after watching the movie "Cars".
