Location(s)??

[Mark D]

Sorry, I thought Greg posted this in the past. South east New York in the Hudson River valley area surrounding FDR's summer home in Hyde park. Also touring the areas near West Point Academy, New Paltz and Rhinebeck. I suspect we will cross the river at least twice.

Hey Mark, look up Kingston Historic water front.   For those interested in the driving portion check out The Hawks Nest( NY route 97) and the Storm King Highway.

Hi Mark,

 

Once the daily itinerary is clear I can determine the logistics of my trip and where I will meet up with the group.

Mark,

I did not vote because the odds of me making it are not great. I am going to try. The weekend of the 13 - 16 is definitely out. The other is a possibility if all goes well at work. My plan is for my wife and I to bring either the 41 or 69 Dodge and make the Friday tailgate. A Saturday cruise/drive with a group dinner sounds good. I am flexible with local or chain motels. Not really interested in a b&b. What ever you guys plan is OK with me. I will vote if you wish, but with a low number of voters I don't want to skew the results since my attendance is so tentative. Thanks to you and Greg for putting something together. Tim

[Mark D]

Tim - Thanks so much for the detailed response! Youre response was in some ways more useful.

 

Chet - Appreciate your chiming in as well. Looking forward to seeing you again.

The DOT sometimes closes the Storm King Highway for 4 hours on Sundays for bicycle and pedestrian traffic .

Time to bump this again. Hoping to see a few more people jump on the trip with us.

Mark and I will be spending the weekend of April 17 in the Hudson Valley area looking at attractions, locations, and touring routes for the August event. We have settled on the dates of August 20 through the morning of the 24.

Any one in the Kingston, Rhinebeck area interested in meeting up with us for our scouting mission is welcomed. Please PM Mark or me for details on where to meet us. Any dose of local knowledge from folks in the area would be welcomed. We will not be bringing our Plymouths for the April weekend but we would sure like to see your's if they are out of hibernation.

Any members in NY, New England, NJ, Pa, and MD/Va, Del, this is a day trip to many of you. Please consider putting this weekend on your calendars. Thursday Aug 20- Sunday Aug 24.
