COLONIAL REGION SPRING DUSTOFF TOUR

Our tour started in Sturbridge, Mass. with heavy traffic on route 20.  After one mile we were off Route 20 onto the calm quiet tour route. We traveled through Holland, Mass. around a scenic Lake front then to Union, Conn.  The route then led us to North Woodstock, Conn. and into Woodstock where we met up with the Dunleas who joined us for the rest of the tour and a quart of ice cream.

The tour ended at Fort Hill Farm where we ate lunch and enjoyed several flavors of ice cream produced with milk from Fort Hill Farms cows.

The Palmers, Ruops, Crooks, Nichols, and Dunleas attended the tour, but  Vince & Carol Ruops had the lone Plymouth. We had 2 Dodges a Chevy and a  Cadillac. A Model A joined us at the farm. At least the Chrysler cars out numbered  GM and Ford.

A good time was had by all after the last year of hit and miss meetings and get togethers.  This year looks better for car events so put that in your prayers as well as an end to the pandemic that has been so awful to so many people.

Respectfully Submitted,

Bruce & Judi Nichols

Nothing like pulling up to a fine picnic table!

The Dunleas wanted to be well grounded while snacking.
