    7:30AM
    Finally got OcrappyOne out of the house and into the Stude for our trip to SB.
    Gonna stop for a light breakfast ant then hit the road for about an 11 or 12 hour pleasure drive.
    Wish us luck!

      We are now in TN; frosty ran a little hot going up Monteagle but Jerry fixed the problem. Now we are headed down the road as fast as this little car will run; maniac at the wheel! Look out world here we come!

        Made it through Tenn. with no problems with the exception of running a little warm coming up Monteagle mountain. We're now at the Kentucky welcome center. Everything is going just fine.

              Yahoo! We are in Indiana! Louisville traffic really sucked but we made it without running hot.

                Still a good ride from Louisville. I've done it once or twice. Now remember to be nice to the folks up there. You're on the wrong side of the Mason-Dixon line!!!

                    I was too tired to report last night. We are at the park now and relaxing in the shade. It is a beautiful day.
                    I feel a little bit better this morning but not by much. I am just as young as I was last year I guess.
                    Because of the rush hour traffic in Louisville yesterday Frosty got only 19.93 MPG. (G).
                    We had to install a new fan belt just before we got to Indy yesterday but there was no other problems.

                        Jerry's car is so fast that even if he did take pics, they'd all be blurry.

                          When I'm on the road I don't like to stop for anything but gas. OcrappyOne tried to take the pix of the welcome to --- signs without any success. (G)
                          This year at the May SB swap meet was the biggest they have ever, and a great time was had by all. Frosty got a 1st place.
                          We left SB at 3pm at drove for 6 hours which included one hour stop at Ruby Tuesdays eating joint and stopped for the night. We got a good night's sleep and are really refreshed this morning. Frosty got another 19.9 MPG. No problems on this leg of the trip. Another 6-7 hours before we reach home base.

                            Sounds like a great time and another successful road trip testing the completed ride.
