I'm jealous. I'm scared to take mine more than an hour away.

C'Mon, Woody....
...I know that's not true. I followed you from Bastrop to Fredericksburg. You can do it!

LOL, that was only an hour and a half away. I was feeling brave. I did drive it up to Dallas once though. Only about an 8 hour trip.

What a great trip! Those pictures bring back a lot of memories. I just did a two-week, 2400 mile one-way meandering trip from Denver to Phoenix, with stops at five national parks and monuments in three states, and whatever else along the way. Only problem was, I did it in a rental Chevy Cruz. After I get the IMS done in my '02 S, we're planning a West Coast trip from the Canadian Border to the Mexican Border. That is supposed to happen next year. Cross your fingers!

Thanks for posting the pictures at your stops along the way. I have a 2001 S and planning a trip from South of Tucson, AZ to Grayslake, IL for a 50 yr Reunion. I think it'll be about 3500 miles RT. It'll give me a chance to get on Route 66 a few times. Have to put in a new clutch before the trip and we'll look at the IMS while in there.
BTW - Did you ever have to put your top up?
