February Tour
The first H.R.&R. driving tour for 2017 is history. Our thanks go out to the Barnes and Wilsons for organizing this event.
33 members and friends met at Collins’ Loafers Glory on February 18th for the trip to the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY. The weather was overcast with light rain. However, Butch Roth said that light rain or mist doesn’t count against his record for predicating good weather for a driving event.
Granville Museum – 1940’s: A Decade of Change
Historic Granville announced today that their 2017 theme will be “ 1940’s: A Decade of Change- Thanks for the Memories”. The 1940’s will be a year long celebration which will begin when the 2017 season opens on March 9th. Pictured in front of Sutton General Store is some of the 2017 scarecrows created by Granville resident Cynthia Mathews which represent soldiers that were in Granville during World War II Maneuvers as well as wives and girl friends that came to visit them while they were stationed in Granville. The 1880 Sutton Home will feature guided tours of “Maneuvers: They Came as Strangers and Left as Friends”, Antique Car Museum will feature 1940’s automobiles and military Vehicles, Granville Museum will feature Memories of the 1940’s and the town will be decorated in the 1940 era. The Granville Museum will be hosting the Tennessee State Museum Traveling Exhibit “ The Slaves & Slave Holders of Wessyngton Plantation” which will be on exhibit from March 9th till June 6th.

February Tour Update
H.R.&R. members, PLEASE remember that we need all those who want to take the February 18th tour to the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green to be signed up with me by February 1st. So far we have 38 people signed up, but we have room for more. Here are a few other details about the event:
* Guy Wilson is pre-paying for all guests and you do not have to pay him until the morning of the tour. The Museum insists on prepayment; however they also guaranteed that if we have inclement weather and cannot make the tour they will give us the option of rescheduling or a full refund. Remember the cost is $25 per person, including lunch and special presentations by members of the Museum staff. And since Guy doesn’t have a credit card machine, please bring cash in correct change if possible on the morning of the 18th.
February Tour Details
Depart at 9:00 am – (approx. 176 mi – round trip)
MEETING LOCATION – “Loafers Glory” – 3511 Memorial Blvd, Murfreesboro, TN 37129
In spite of Tom being gone he has arranged for those that need caffeine to have pots of coffee and snacks in his lodge. There is a clean rest room on site. For those who need it, the first restroom stop is approximately a one hour drive. If you have to stop earlier along the way, do it and just get back on 231 and meet us at the 30 minute restroom stop at Westmoreland. Note; the warehouse and car shop will not be open without Tom being present.
REMEMBER: If you are signing up to have your Classic – Collector car or Modern Iron car photos taken, please try to arrive at least 30 minutes before we depart for Rick Jones to capture you and your rider(s) photos. This was described in Tom’s reminder on the 31st.
NOTE: This is a two lane, 55mph drive, which means that there are many miles that we will need to travel 58-60mph, if it is dry. PLEASE do not encumber those who live and work along the roads. And if the traffic circle in Lebanon slows us, don’t worry there is plenty of road to catch up.
