Well, less than a week away!! This Saturday at 11:00 meet Heartland Fieros at exit 242 off Interstate 80 at the Antique Car Museum of Iowa in Coralville, Iowa.
http://www.antiquecarmuseumofiowa.org/ map of the location in Coralville - 860 Quarry Road Coralville, IA
http://maps.live.com/defaul...&alt=-1000&encType=1 After a tour of the museum we will head out for a cruise around the Coralville Resevoir and the Devonian Fossil Gorge (http://www.mvr.usace.army.mil/coralville/devonian_fossil_gorge.htm).
Around this area we will be stopping for lunch at the Jolly Roger campground restaurant 'Bobbers' overlooking Coralville lake. They serve burgers and such in the $5 to $8 range.
We will then eventually be heading to Main Amana for short tour and a planned stop of an hour to hour and a half for touring/shopping the Amana shops and cruising by the Lily Pond.
After our run thorugh the Amana's whoever is interested we are invited back to Mark Nicklaus's house for a grillout or just general sitting around chatting in North Liberty again just of I-80.
Dress warm for a crisp fall day I believe we've orderd temps in the 50's and a nice sunny day. Also if you have hand held radios (walkie Talkies) then bring those along so no one gets lost
.
The Iowa Football game starts at 11:00 so traffic at 11:00 should be light at exit 242 and we should be out of town before the game lets out so we are good to go there.
I believe there is a caravan leaving the Davenport Area around 9:45 a.m. from the Flying J truckstop, if you want to join them or have questions please contact/verify with John Holmes before you head over (jmholmes@theinter.com).
Hope to see you and everyone in fieros or whatever (Heck I'm bringing a Ford) as everyone and everything is welcome!!
