Exactly my question. I hope that when you are finished this fantastic trip, you could maybe publish a summary itinerary, so that the rest of us can do the same.

Keep up the trip and postings, cause I'm lovin' it!

**Chevyland** · 09-14-2016, 10:27 PM

The good ole Internet

And many places We just strike up a conversation with somebody

They will say

Have you ever been here? We google it
Say what the heck 'let's go check it out'
That's how we just found this restaurant

Study it closely

How did we have 2 beers
2 margaritas
4 tacos
3 enchiladas
And whatever else

For $25 bucks

I new it would be good when we walked in
And they wouldn't let us sit 2 people at a 4top

Oh well we sat at the bar

1968aj · 09-14-2016, 10:34 PM

that's pretty cheap but in TEXAS you never get charged for chips and salsa.

**70STOVEBOLT** · 09-14-2016, 10:35 PM

They forgot to multiply!

**Boog** · 09-14-2016, 10:50 PM

You are in Wisconsin already?

**Chevyland** · 09-14-2016, 10:58 PM

They don't charge for chips and salsa in Ca either
But I figured a couple bucks wasn't worth complaining about

Back to the museum

Check this thing out

I have a 37 Chevy. All original, at home
But not a ''ute

Before last year I woundnt have even known what one was
But my good buddy Joel who now lives in Australia
Worked at some sort of Kangaroo petting zoo
Drove newer ones all over the place

If you can't zoom in on the description let me know. I have a close up

**Chevyland** · 09-14-2016, 11:26 PM

The place also had a few non Chevy things

That were cool some of you may know about these

Cushman

Another friend of mine has a couple
He once took me on a rally ride
With a bunch of other guys

What's up Seth. Hope you are watching

**Chevyland** · 09-14-2016, 11:33 PM

And one last one for the evening

A Sno Runner

Good night. Thanks again for all the feed back

This is fun!!!

**special-K** · 09-15-2016, 07:21 AM

That's a Cushman Eagle... later and fancier model. Put a pack together and hit Hollister. Call yourselves "The Mild Bunch".

Charged for chips and salsa in WI I understand, but $.80 for cheese???? And wuzzup with that $.02 charge?! I'da raised holy heck! Wudda hadda hauled me out

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:08 AM

Ok guys
While we are doing the research on a place for breakfast
That will measure up to last nights dinner

I thought I would give you an overview of
The Harley Museum

But they happen to have every single artifact about Harley's
And nearly every year of a restored or original bike from 1903
So you will have to go there yourself

What I did try to do, was get a picture of one for each year of our trucks
I'll now go thru my photos and see if I succeeded

1971

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:11 AM

1968

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:14 AM

1970

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:17 AM

1967

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:24 AM

1972
Disappointing for me
Compared to the other years
Since 72 is my favorite year truck

**Chevyland** · 09-15-2016, 08:31 AM

I must have got distracted
Looking for the 69
Or they didn't have one to look at
But!

Been to the Harley Museum ,Im not a motor cycle guy but loved that place ,very ice history lessons everywhere in there .
If you can go to the Tillamouth Cheese factory and I know I spelled that wrog .

35boulder · 09-15-2016, 10:03 AM

That museum is mecca to Harley Folks of which I'm one. I too have been there. If you get a chance go to the motor assemble plant and take a tour. Safe travels!

If you're still in Milwaukee, you need to visit Lakefront Brewery downtown. It's like no brewery tour I've ever done. It's a hoot!

I can't wait to see what else this adventure will bring. Definitely one of the coolest threads in a while.

Man, now I'm disappointed I didn't find this thread before you passed through on I-65. I'll be watching where you go the rest of the way.
