72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast

[drewbert41]

Let me know how it is at your Decatur stop. I live right by there and I have never made it over for the museum.

Drewbert. We will be at Chevy hall of fame tomorrow
Pm me if you want to stop in and say hi

These rural roads can be sketchy out here
Just barely missed some farmers dog that creased the road in front of us

And everyone seems to be in a hurry passing us
Although we haven't had a semi do it on a two lane road
Yet

[Chevyland]

I think I finally got the angle down

These things are everywhere out here

Wait till ya cross the rockies. They are waiting for you, especially on the multiple reservations
I'm jealous, looks like fun.

Muhammad Ali was an amazing human being

Compassiionate
Humanitarian
Singing
Dreaming
Big talking
Poet

That was one bad dude when he fought

When you enter the museum an escalator takes you up 5 floors
Looking over the the Ohio river
You then walk back down
Floor by floor, viewing his life

Check out the Kipling poem "IF"
They ran a video to this when you entered.
It was so powerful yet compassionate

They also had his West Coast Choper
Displayed right when you walk in
10' long. And 110hp

Trying to post up my stories at the restaurant
That mostly always double as a bar

Again!
I saw something I wasn't expecting

[Chevyland]

Early this morning. We started at Louisville Slugger Museum
Which is still also the factory

This place cuts down 40 thousand trees to widdle down one baseball season worth of bats
Sustainability (of course)

Back in the day they made 6 million a year by hand
Now they only have to pump out 2 mil since aluminum bats came in to fashion
And they have computerized lathes and cnc
machines. To do it

A very informative tour that they wouldn't let me take pictures of

But outside you could swing an authentic bat used (and some signed)
By your favorite player.

All you had to do is wear their special gloves
That's B's hand to the left. He pretended to hit homers with several
Including a signed 'Ricky Henderson '

[Chevyland]

By the end of the day we even had the cops passing us
Just chillin takin in the country
And not pushing it to hard
We've got to many miles. Yet

Thank god they don't really look at your tags when you are out of state
