Corvette Country

Today we journeyed from Indiana to Alabama on I-65.  We determined that each state has progressively been warmer heading south.  Imagine that!  In Michigan it was on the 20's.  Ohio and Indiana were in the 30's. Kentucky was in the 40's, Tennessee in the 50's and Alabama was in the 60's. Perhaps we'll see the 70's in Florida tomorrow.

As we approached Bowling Green, KY we saw a few transport trucks hauling brand-new Corvettes heading north.  Each car is ensconced in its own bag-like cover. The covering for the windshield is like a antique car side-curtain plastic window.

We were able to view from I-65, GM's Bowling Green Assembly Plant where the Corvettes are built. We also passed the National Corvette Museum not far from the plant. Important note for Ford enthusiasts: Earlier today, we also passed the Louisville Assembly Plant where the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC are built.

Tonight we are "camping" at the Clanton Walmart in Clanton, AL. It's supposed to get all the way down to 57 degrees tonight.
