National Corvette Homecoming 7/14-7/16/11

[mtrocket]

I'm pretty new here, but trying to figure it all out!! We are (tentatively) planning to come to Bowling Green in Apr., and are wondering what the weather is like then.

The National Corvette Homecoming in July 14-17, not in April. Their is, however, a group planning a trip to Charleston, South Carolina in April - here is the link to that thread in case that is what you are looking for.

I see you're in Napa Valley, CA... I know there will be several XLR's travelling from CA; maybe you can catch them (or maybe they'll have to catch you... not sure how fast you drive) and caravan along!!!

We are still discussing the details. Will see when the other Ca. XLR's are planning to leave. We would prob. take I-80 straight east. We traveled to Albuquerque nm several times in the past year and a half, and it was VERY hot through the Southwest desert in the summer months on I-40 (Route 66!). Definitely not topless weather! Usually run pretty fast on the Fwy!

Bowling Green will be .... as you said ....HOT! (Less to pack ).
We can DEFINETLY meet you in Albuquerque, if not before ... that will be an overnight stop for us - and hopefully we will pick up one, if not two cars there (Jean & Jim) ... we will already be hooked up with Jetboy coming from the Phoenix area .... Plan on going! After the holidays we will start posting much more about this trip.

Hate to be stupid, but I'm not a vendor, nor is my car for sale, or show quality. I don't see any other categories to register for. I just want to attend and meet the folks, etc., etc.

Thanks, Rusty

Alright!! My new best friend! I, too, am none of the above.

I just want to attend and meet the folks, etc., etc.

You'll fit in just fine.

Same reason I am going !!!

Meet the crew, see the plant and maybe stop by the Makers Mark Distillery on the way home.

Makers Mark distillery is about 90 miles north east of Bowling Green up I 65 and about 90 miles south of Louisville, KY and I 64

I actually have a barrel there with my name on it waiting to reach its aging.

Forgot to say it is in Loretto, KY
