It has finally cooled down enough here to walk outside and not get hit in the face with extremely hot air . We are going to drop the top in the morning and see how long we can stand the heat. We are going up across the mountain toward old RT66 so maybe it will be somewhat cooler. There are some pics posted on a thred on TC if anyone is interested in seeing them. My wife and I have taken over 1000 photos so far and many more will come.

It has been great to hear of your travels. I think what makes it so neat is the fact that you enjoy and drive your car. I can't wait to see some more of the pics. By the way I did not mind the car with the road dirt on it, I actually like that, it looks great.
Safe travels home.

Im back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You all thought you were rid of me didnt you ? We got home at 10 PM last night after driving from Oklahoma starting at 6 AM OKC time. Boy am I ever saddle sore ,but what a great trip. We were making great time until we got to Manchester Tenn . There was a bad accident that completely shut down I -24 south for over an hour and we were running low on gas at the time. Our own little house and bed never looked so good as it did last night. I sure did miss you guys and gals ,its good to be back.

Thanks guys ,its good to be back . It was an amazing trip across the country and back. Im sure my credit card company will love me until the end of the month. The folks in Oregon were wonderful to meet in person and spend time with ,a great bunch of guys and gals. Its hard to tell you how much fun we had doing this trip in a Chevelle. We were going through our mail last night and a copy of a newspaper about our travels from a small town out west with our cars on the front page was very nice. I guess they were not used to seeing a group of old cars driving across the country .

We have been thinking about this trip of a lifetime we took a few years back and now that ACES Chevelle Club is gone we wonder if we will ever get to go on another trip like it with Chuck and our other traveling buddies ,I sure hope we do .

Not quite the same, but have you ever done "Cruising the Coast"? A few of us Floridians are interested in making the trip.
I can't imagine the long drive you made. I did the long haul on the Power Tour in 2010. Orlando to Iowa and back in 9 days. It was hell, I'll never do it again.
