Mark and I would like to go, not sure where we will stay. Does anyone know the approximate route, we are in Grand Rapids and could meet up possibly mid day Friday, depending on his schedule. I get out of work on Friday at 11 but could probably take the morning off to pack and such. what time do you think you all would be around GR. If the weather holds we would love to hang out have a beer or two and throw some money at the slots. As well as see the colors. Hey Squid remember me I was shotgunridergirl...now I am just the passenger. Let me know it sounds like a great ride and a fun time

Al would know more of a time we would be around. We will be leaving after we meet for breakfast at 8:00 am We all should be on the road by 9:00-9:30 I believe. Try for hotel res. at the Microtel in Manistee Mi. we are all staying there on Friday. Hope this help's.
