If you should happen to get as far west as Nebraska, a must see is Harold Warp's Pioneer Museum, located in Minden. Unbelievable! South of I-80, but well worth the trip if you're interested in seeing some odd ball sights on your trip. Guy has a heck of a collection of various items, such as the world's biggest collection of barbed wire, a bunch of old WWI aircraft, etc.

And if you go to the back side of the Bush Gardens which is located beside the brewery, there is a gate there that you can go into the brewery and take a free tour. They stamp your hand so you can get back in the park. As you enter the brewery, don't follow the crowd to the right where it says "start of tour" (unless you really want to do the tour). You turn left and go where it says "exit only", (where all the people are coming out of), and you will come out right at the bar at the end of the tour where you can get free beer. They say that you are only allowed two free beers per person, but there are so many people bellying up to the bar and so many bartenders that if you hop from one side of the bar to the other they don't really pay attention. Or so I've heard.

AMA Motorcycle Racing musuem in Ohio on I-70 just east of Columbus. That's on the way to Dayton for that air museum. Should also be some nice car and truck shows in OH10 since the season pretty much kicked off last week. Come through and visit the Ohio Chapter for awhile. Been a Bruins fan since 7 years old.

Go go Black and Gold!

Ford musuem and River Rouge plant in Greenwich and Dearborn, Mich.

SpeedWeek at Bonneville Salt Flats start in late July. I guess you trip will be done by that time.
