We had fun touring the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky yesterday. This amazing museum is a non-profit organization and supported entirely by Corvette enthusiasts--no funding by General Motors! The building is ultra modern and has 68,000 square feet and located on a 120 acre campus just across the street from the Corvette assembly plant. Unfortunately, the plant was at the beginning of a two week shutdown when we were there. I would estimate that there are over a hundred Corvettes on display in the museum along with tons of informative displays and historical information and videos. Since most of the cars are loaned to the museum for a minimum of one year, the displays are constantly changing and updated. This morning we drove to Louisville where we will tour Churchill Downs and have dinner with Dale and Betty Jo Steele in Charlestown, Indiana. Dale and I worked together at Aviall. Tomorrow we're off to Sturgis, Kentucky to see friends Willis and Mary Thornsberry. Mary graduated from high school with me.
