Well,
We are outbound from Amana headed for the Iowa cars museum (sorry, I have slipped the actual name) so, we are going to be running scenic Rt 6 into Iowa City.
After the Museum, Who knows?
We have three days to do a little over 400 miles. That may become 450 if we try to include a stop at Elderly Instrument in Lansing. That may just happen as Mary will not be free a day they are open until after Christmas and we haven't been there in at least five years.
Route 6 is a pretty road and it will be a nice drive to the museum.

Matt,
We decided to hang around an extra day to sort out a few minor problems and relax. I am REALLY tired too - I never realized having a
great time was so exhausting! Then when we were dumping the macerator DUMPED! DAMN! Well I know what I'll be doing after I send
this!
As I understand it there were 158 coaches here at Amana which I believe was the highest count since Santa Rosa (my first rally -
wife & coach less).
Hopefully GMCMI and GMCWS can coordinate a convention for next fall in the west. That desire is a bit self serving as next year
we'll head west from Houston and when we get to Arizona we'll turn right and head north up to Western Montana where we'll turn left
and head over to Washington - left again and down to southern California and then back to Houston.
Regards,
Rob M.
PS - Maybe we can find time to get stuck into the scotch!

A meeting like this really produces black water, talk about shooting the sh t.
There was a lot of talking as well i am sure.
Sounds like more fun than can be had with the center of attention a mobile machine to live in.
most likely the largest in the world for one of a kind motor home.
best regards, it is inspiring just to hear about it all. Fun Fun Fun on the autobahn.
Looking for the new info coming from all the shooting.
Mickey :-)
