The Midwest caravan made it safe and sound tonight. It took us about 4 hours longer than originally planned partly because the route was slower. but mostly because we had a major repair to Jill's ghia.

After stopping for fuel, it started to make the telltale rattle of a fan coming loose. We pulled into the next available parking lot and found a little shade. Couldn't have stopped at a better spot. Turns out neither Jim nor I had to correct socket for the fan bolt. Fortunately there was an advanced auto parts store in the same plaza we pulled into. 

A huge thanks to Jim for all the help, and to Melissa for keeping Jill company while we worked.

Jill took some great pictures and videos that I will have to get them posted up.

 We had a late dinner and said hi to the rest of the invaders. Tomorrow is the day trip to Watkins Glen. Should be fun.

Looks like the link to the Google Maps route is a bit messed up.  Here is a link to a screen shot of the route.  We are avoiding tolls and sticking to mostly the scenic route.
