2008 Friday May 16th through Sunday May 18th.
| I received an
email from Steve Golliher, a Z owner in Crawfordsville
Indiana saying that he and his wife Cindy would like to go
on drives but...
The "but" was caused by the simple fact that they own a B&B and in the summer months, our main driving season they can't get away. I emailed Steve back and said, we can fix that by bringing roadsters to his door, filling his B&B so the two of them can enjoy our company and more importantly, Steve and Cindy can lead us on some drives in the Crawfordsville area. Steve told me "Incidentally, our local area ( here to approx 30 miles south) has some excellent scenery, good driving roads, exceptional state parks (Turkey Run, Shades), and outstanding canoeing on Sugar Creek. Also, approx 20-30 miles south is Parke County with over 20 covered bridges. Thus, this general area would be good for a potential road trip." The Davis House Bed and Breakfast is an elegant Italianate design home built in the 1860’s in Crawfordsville, Indiana. The home is located on West Wabash Avenue, approximately .4 mile west of the Wabash College campus. |
