HMCCC Spring Cruise Along
the Historic Lincoln Highway

April 24 - 25, 2010

Many thanks to Sissy & Butch Riley who planned a great Spring Cruise! We had 11 vehicles and 22 members on the cruise, including Frank & Alice in their old pickup, Rick & Sharon in new steel, Jim & Linda in the
'63 Cutlass, Paul & Lynda in their '55, Ken & Rocky Jones in their ‘66 Corvair, Ed & Marsha in their '55 Nomad, Butch & Sissy in their red '57, John & Janet in their '57, Frank & Bev in new steel, Chris & Michelle in
their 71 Chevelle and Rick Parrish & Sue in their '57.

We headed to PA on Rte 15 to US 30 West, the Lincoln Highway, and, first thing, lost Ken & Rocky Jones; didn't mean to, they got stopped at a light in Fayetteville, PA and didn't see Butch & Sissy and John & Janet make a turn. Those behind them realized what had happened, and chased after them but never caught up to the little yellow Corvair. Since Ken & Rocky didn't have a cell phone or cb, and didn't backtrack, we didn't see them again until we checked into the hotel that night.

Day One we visited a nice flea market and antique place and visited the Flight 93 temporary memorial which was very moving. And we saw a very cool Log Cabin Church built in 1806. OHHHH - and Frank & Alice ran out of gas in their pickup, we found out that Sharon does Rachel, and we all ate like little piggies! Fortunately, although the forecast was for bad weather, the rains held off until about 5:30 pm, shortly before we got to our hotel for the night.

Sunday morning dawned dreary and foggy and we enjoyed a bountiful hot breakfast buffet at the Best Western. It never rained, and by the time we got on the road, the fog was already lifting. Later, we even had to get out our sunglasses! We got to drive over two covered bridges, the one at Bedford Village and the Colvin covered bridge. We also stopped at the historic art deco Gulf station which was constructed in 1930, and the Coffee Pot which was constructed in 1927. We went to the Bison Barn and saw a field of American bison, including three babies. We also spent about 2 hours touring the $120M renovations at the Bedford Springs Resort and Spa. Wow!

We headed home in the early afternoon and stopped in Hancock at the Park & Dine to eat (again!). Then a number of us headed to Glade Valley in Walkersville to visit Earl and be rowdy! Great weekend! And we made it home before rain and thunderstorms ripped thru the area!
