NY have fun. My wife, oldest daughter and I did a similar trip many years ago in my 73. St. Louis to the Smokies, jumped on the Blue Ridge Pkwy to DC, Then through Penn/NY all the way to Algonquin Park in Ont. From there across the top of Lake Huron to the U.P. down through Wis. and home. Other than me catching pneumonia and darn near dying the bronco got a flat. One of the best trips we ever took! And I almost forgot, I had my 15 foot Gruman canoe on top.

Man, thats sounds too good! Except the pneumonia.

I dont think Ill be doing much sleeping tonight. Could not get much sleep last night either. Jut sitting, pacing and staring at the pics of the EB. Normally I would only start packing for the trip on the morning of, but this time the bags have been packed and waiting days ago. Its almost like the bags are packed for the wife to give birth ;D

I thought I would share some views of where I am from. Its the view from my place in Jersey. One is the last sunset before bronco ownership and the last moonrise before Bronco ownership. Beautiful city I must say. But as glorious as this man made landscape is, it dont got nothing on mother nature. I just cant wait...........
Little Green EB - DADDY IS COMING!!!;D;D;D;D;D

Herman - Hope you're flight was smooth and you're already checking out your new love. Feel her up once for me and call me when you're close to Nashvegas! :cool:

Looks like Stingus, BajaFresh and I are all waiting to hear when we need to be at Famous Daves which is about 15 miles east of Nashville (exit 221/Old Hickory Blvd.) off of I-40, 2.2 miles north). Plenty of good hotels in that area too and safe overnight Bronco parking.

We have an update! - He's on the east side of Memphis and loving this fine balmy weather that we're having (currently 100 degrees, 107 heat index). Bronco is running well and he's enjoying the trip despite trying to get used to the brakes - or lack of :-X

Estimating another 3 hours before getting to Nashvegas so that would put him in about 8:30 CST. I'll update ya with more info when I get it!
