No, really




Beautiful day driving up and hitting some great roads northwest of Ann Arbor/Irish Hills of Michigan with a friend!

Colors are starting to turn, going to get out there in the C4 as much as I can until the salt shuts me down. Between Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan some great fall driving to be had!

I wouldn’t know! This was a drive that started early Sunday and since I hadn’t been to church yet I thought visiting Hell was pushing it enough !

Thanks for sharing.

If my wife doesn't have to go into jury duty on Tuesday, we are going to do the last one of the season down through the country, old towns in between Akron and Columbus (Ohio). The leaves are turning here also. We are supposed to have temps to 32 next week (we sit low so we will see high 20's, we have already had a frost). Corvetteing is coming to a close real quick and it is getting time to tuck them away for their winter's nap.

We might even go the back down to Wheeling W.Va. That is a pretty cool drive as US 250 is the old way and winds its way through the foothill mountain country of southern Ohio.

I will start a separate thread and post of some pictures of the old towns and driving through the hills so I don't steal from your thread pedricd.

It is getting to be that time of year. Thought about taking my 84 out the other day but when I went to open the overhead door of my storage unit no such luck. Apparently the spring has broken and who knows when they will get around to fixing it.....
