Last spring in Kokomo we talked a little about coming to southern Michigan for our spring gathering. Patty and I have been kicking it around and here's what we came up with so far. There's a little town on the Lake Michigan coast called Saugatuck. Its a very artsy town with lots of restaurants and shops. Also has a couple of beautiful beaches for picnic, etc. If interested we could also take a cruise to a really cool car museum, Gilmore not too far away. It would be nice to have it in late spring say May where we have a better chance of warm weather. I used Indianapolis as a distance reference and its only 216 mi.

Dskopp- you could take the boat across if it's still running. I would be interested in taking the tribe sans the vette. Make sure to wear pink pants and shirts

T - sounds interesting. Never spent much time in MI other than Grand Rapids for work.
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

I live near and work in Grand Rapids Marshall. But you ain't seen Michigan til you have seen the beaches. When and if get enough response I will post a poll to see what ya'll think about the date. Plenty of time to plan. "T"
