**** Updated 7/3 ****
Two Bonneville newbies are checking off another bucket list item - a run to Bonneville in my roadster. I have a fellow HAMBer/Fordbarner Chuck Lessard riding shotgun and we're going out with the Rolling Bones and coming back on our own, taking our time, making stops to museums and points of interest along the way.

We would like to meet up with as many HAMB and 'Barner folks as possible on this trip. To that end, here is the itinerary from the Bones with more specific info when we get it - we hope anyone in the vicinity of these stops can stop by and say hey:

Aug 2nd - Wheeling, WV - this is our first stop on our way to catch up with the tour the next day.
Aug 3rd - Econo lodge , 10667 Fremont pike , Perrysburg , OH. 43551 - 419-874-8771 - very close to Toledo, OH
Aug 4th - Altoona, IA
Aug 5th - North Platte, NE
Aug 6th - Rock Springs, WY
Aug 7th - Orem, UT
Aug 8-15th - Wendover, UT - Peppermill Casino, across from the Golden Nugget
Aug 16-17 - making tracks to Joplin, MO for the HAMB Drags
Plans are to make stops in more-or-less this order from Joplin:

Starbird Museum
Pete and Jakes?
Speedway Museum
Parts of Rt 66
Speedway, IN to hope fully stop by Bubba's shop and say hey

When we know more specific stop info I'll post it right here. We'll alternate driving after each gas stop so there will be pictures and video from both of us. I intend to take my netbook to post as much/all of the info we gather each day. I will post some here, but the majority of my posting will be done on the HAMB:

We are totally psyched about going and can't wait to get started - 30 days away ....
