Well, I booked a room for myself Friday night at Hampton Inn Harrisburg/Grantville/Hershey 255 Bow Creek Road Grantville, Pennsylvania 17028 Telephone: 1-717-469-7689 for $99 USD, about 6 -7 miles north from Hershey. Things in the chocolate town are 50% more. It looks like some VA/DC Pelicans meet Friday night at the Bear's Den.

I am hopeful that I can drive the Pcar. I have some rear suspension stuff to take care of starting mid-March. And a caliper rebuild.

We could plan a meet there, or a communal drive down. I'm open for suggestions.

Trying to attach a possible route from this month's Provinz.

Between #2 & #7 is Hwy 44 described as a "fantastic twisty road".

Jaak, I could probably fit a complete car in, along with the passengers, well that may be a bit of an exageration, I could probaby only take three passengers then.

I guess we should try to get the same hotel down there. Might be able to get a group rate.
Will make for some good times and a possible designated driver so others may enjoy the locale "tea".
