Okay - I have a first draft of the covered bridge tour... it's pretty rough right now and needs some work, but the hard part is done.

The next step is to drive it and fix all the problems that I already see.

If all goes well and all the bridges are open we'll manage to cover 10 of the 12 bridges. I'm not expecting all of them to be open, so I'll be happy if we get 7 or 8 in the final draft of the tour.

All - I ran the first half of the covered bridge tour today. We are going to have to change the starting point from Washington Crossing to the Lamberville location that we have used previously (see the update above).

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I think it will make for a better drive for us.

Well, we drove the final version of the covered bridge tour today. I think it has turned out pretty well.

80 miles, 7 covered bridges, several state parks and some good mixed terrain roads. We'll have fun with it.

Bump! Hope to see you next Saturday!

A couple of reminders!
i) bring 2 way radios if you have them
ii) fill up your car with gas before you arrive.
iii) empty your bladder also.
iv) bring a camera.

Many thanks to those of you that turned out for the drive today. It was wonderful to see you all and your cars.

The weather held out for us and the feedback on the drive was that it was our best so far. It's going to be hard to top some of these roads!

If you have photographs that you would not mind sharing please send me an email or PM and I'll give you an email address to send photographs to. Once I have photos from everyone I'll post them to a website for everyone to see.

Thanks again and I hope to see you all again for another drive in September or October!
