A Little Six Day Trip

[Norm]

17 Vettes and 34 folks in the club went for a 1,250 mile 6 day trip to New London CT, Newport RI, Cape Cod MA, Stockbridge MA. Two surprise visits were the Norman Rockwell Museum and a stop at Lime Rock for 10 or so parade laps (100+ for some) in the rain (bummer), but had fun nevertheless. :D

Very nice trip. I used to work for a company out of New London and loved going out there in the summer time, lots of great places to see, - did you stop at Mystic Pizza?

Stopped in Mystic for a night, not enough time for a lot of site/sight seeing, everybody was pooped from driving the hectic turnpikes and 95, then moved on to Newport.
