For those of you not wanting to do the driving tour, but still wanting to
show your appreciation of George, You can just go to Krepps Covered Bridge,
in Mt. Pleasant Township, on Covered Bridge Road.  Google Maps will take you
there.  You can arrive & register for the car show (no charge, BTW) anytime
after 9:30, Sunday morning.  I don’t know when registration closes, but I’m
sure you will be welcomed with open arms, whenever you arrive.

 

For those hardy souls planning to do some DRIVING, tomorrow morning, here is
the latest:

 

1.	PADOT has been VERY busy, in Washington County, for the past many
weeks and, in particular, in Mt. Pleasant Twp.  So, although most roads that
have been oiled & chipped are just fine to drive our cars on, by now, be
advised that the road I live on (and which you will have to drive on, to get
to registration) was just done this past Thursday.  It’s really not a
problem, provided you are not in a hurry.
2.	To avoid most of the oil & chips, if you are coming from Bridgeville
(via route 50), or Canonsburg (via 980, to 50), drive past the first turn
onto Southview Road and go to the next turn, onto Southview Road, about 2.5
mile farther west, on route 50.  Then, you will only have a ½ mile of slow
running, to get over the oil & chips.
3.	Leaving the start of the tour, the 92 mile tour route turns left,
leaving my driveway and goes 1/3 of a mile, before turning onto freshly
PAVED (zero gravel/oil & chips!) Baker Road.
4.	The 64 mile route turns left, out of my driveway and goes back to
route 50, into Hickory.  If you’d rather avoid the oil & chips, on Southview
Road and a short stretch of them, on Wabash Ave. (total distance of well
under one mile), in Hickory, we can easily do that.  Just ask me, when you
get here and I’ll hook you up.

 

This morning, I finally finished the odometer check, on the 92 mile route
and the roads are in great shape.  Both routes use some of the same roads
and I promise you that you will not be disappointed with the roads, or the
great scenery, particularly on a sunny day and viewed from the many ridges
you’ll be travelling along.

 

Let’s have a STRONG showing for George!
