MCCNE Fun Run Halderman Barn Museum r4.pdf 

The trip would take 4 days.  The proposed itinerary is as follows:

*- Day 1, Sunday, June 25, 2017: We can meet at the rest area on I-84 West just beyond the Route 20 interchange in Sturbridge, Massachusetts at 12:00PM to start our journey to Ohio.  I have mapped a route via I-84 West to CT-15 South, to I-287 in New York, to I-81 South in Pennsylvania.  We then take I-80 South to US-11 South, where our hotel awaits in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.  It should take us 5 – 6 hours to get to the hotel from the Rest Area in Connecticut. I will research places to stop for stretching, eating and resting, so the 5 - 6 hours may be more like 7 – 8.

*- Day 2, Monday, June 26, 2017: We awake and have breakfast at the hotel in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and get on the road to Englewood, Ohio.  The route takes us along I-76 West, to I-70 West into Ohio where our hotel awaits in Englewood, Ohio.  It should take us 6 – 7 hours to get to the hotel in Englewood, Ohio from the hotel in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.  I will research places to stop for stretching, eating and resting, so the 6 – 7 hours may be more like 8 – 10.

* Day 3, Tuesday, June 27, 2017: We awake and have breakfast at the hotel, and get on the road the Halderman Barn Museum in Tipp City, Ohio.  The museum is only 15 – 20 minutes from the hotel.  Once at the Halderman Barn Museum, Gale Halderman gives us a private tour.  We get to meet the man who was the primary designer of the original Mustang.  I am thinking we are there for 4 hours.  After the tour, and some questions and answers, we take I-70 East into Pennsylvania to US-30 West in Breezewood, Pennsylvania where we spend the night.  It should take us 5 – 6 hours to get to the hotel from the Halderman Barn Museum. I will research places to stop for stretching, eating and resting, so the 5 - 6 hours may be more like 7 – 8.

*- Day 4, Wednesday, June 28, 2017: We awake and have breakfast at the hotel, and get on the road back home to New England. We take I-70 East to I-76 East, to I-81 North, to I-78 East, to I-287 North, to CT-15 North, and, if people want, we could stop in Portland, Connecticut at Chasing Classic Cars’ Wayne Carini’s F40 Motorsport car dealership and shop.  It should take us 5 – 6 hours to get to F40 Motorsports from the hotel in Breezewood, Pennsylvania. I will research places to stop for stretching, eating and resting, so the 5 - 6 hours may be more like 7 – 8. I could contact him ahead of time so he will be expecting a parade of Mustangs sometime in the afternoon.  After the stop at F40 Motorsports, we make our way to I-84 East, and go our separate ways.
