Great Lakes Fall Color Tour - Saturday October 24

Saturday October 24 is the date this year. Once again we will meet up about 10am so we can get started about 11:00 or so.

This year we will start at the McDonalds off of Huron Rd in Ypsilanti. Huron Rd is Exit 183 off of I-94. Just south of I-94 is a light for James L Hart Parkway, turn there and go to the McDonalds. Get there in time to get a snack or use the facilities at McDonald’s. We will pass out maps and turn by turn directions prior to leaving the parking lot.

This year we will drive the route backwards (though not in reverse). About a half hour before the end of the drive we stop in Hell, Michigan for a rest stop and photo opportunity (and possibly a snack?).

We run the event rain or shine. This is a fun event and even if your Shelby is not running (or you don’t want to bring it out), come on out for a nice drive. You will be glad you did!! Everybody is welcome!!

Hmmm... gotta check the schedule, it's been a few years since I was last able to attend a GL color tour and it's a great time!

I drove the route yesterday to check the directions and to check for construction. Driving it backwards is really like driving a new route. Very little looks familiar, unlike driving the old route for many years.

I drove next to a dam with water flowing over it. I thought, "Gosh, I've never seen that dam before today." While it is right next to the road, it is kinda hidden from the other side of the road.

Can we stop and do the "Dam" tour?
