Ct Fall Foliage Cruise Sunday Oct 29th!

Meeting at the commuter parking lot in Cheshire CT off I84. I have changed the route this year, we will not be going to Kent Falls as in the past.
From there we will cruise about a half hour up Rt8 North to exit 42 Rt118 towards Torrington and then take a left on Rt4 where we will gas up and use the rest rooms. There will be another chance to use the rest rooms a little further at the Burger King we usually stop at and that's the last bathroom break. From there we will cruise through Litchfield County and Goshen along some scenic roadways. We will turn into Mohawk State Park and go up a small winding paved road to the top of the mountain. There is a great view for miles on mutiple sides. Leaving there we'll drive through a different covered bridge, then the one we usually go through, on the way to lunch at 1st and Ten.

Anyone who wants to meet us at 1st & Ten without going on the cruise, we should be there noonish.

Meeting time is 8:45
Departure time is 9:00
Meeting spot is the commuter parking lot just North of I84 exit 26, if coming from the west, take a left at the traffic light at the end of the ramp, straight through the next light, and the lot is on your left, if coming from the east, take a right at the end of the ramp and the lot is on your left.

The food is always great at 1st and Ten, and Chuck the owner and former Viper owner now sporting a Hellcat, always makes sure we are well taken care of and cones off parking spaces for our arrival. The snakes will invade again this year!!

When's the rain date? Sunday's forecast isn't looking promising.

I'm watching the weather forecast for Sunday Oct 29th and it's getting progressively worse. We started out the week with only a 40% chance of rain, but now it's looking pretty bad. I'll make a decision on Saturday whether to postpone the event. If I postpone it, the rain date will be the following Sunday Nov. 5th.

The weather forecast has improved. The hourly forecast for Sunday shows a 10% chance of rain for any given hour, that means a 90% chance of no rain. If there is no interest by tomorrow afternoon, I will cancel the event.
