Just be sure you take the scenic route.

Yeah, we have a "shelter in place" order here in Montana also however this was in the wording. "Outdoor activity is also allowed, though with proper social distancing. Bullock (Our Governor) discouraged any activity with an enhanced risk of injury, such as backcountry skiing in an avalanche danger area, that could stress the state's first responder network". I can't see why a drive in the Vette wouldn't fall under this allowance.

Well done. I liked the back ground music too. When it first started I thought it was Step'n Wolf "Born to be Wild". My favorite driving music. 2 thumbs up .

That's actually a royalty free piece from Audio Blocks. My daughter found several she thought would work and then we narrowed it down to that one.

Was that Lake Travis or Marble Falls? We don’t get that scenery up here in the Panhandle. Our roads are more ‘straight line launch!
