Yup and the girl driving the trolley can attest to that when I got on.
At least I think it was a girl, she sure looked good. :-[

Must be a private joke there somewhere.

In defense of the American beer, I should say that I buy it a lot, coming to my "cabin" in the U.S. almost every weekend. The beer I buy is 5.5% at least. A 18 pak for $16.00 or $17.00. I never did care too much for the high test, unless it's offered of course Norm. If you're buying I'll probably be polite and accept. ;)

It was a joke there Rick, that was at our rally in Lake George last year, I got asked for id at the grocery store buying a case of beer, an hour later while getting on the bus to go downtown the woman bus driver put her hand over the fare box when I tried to pay, and said that seniors ride for half price.
Only in America.

She probably thought you were a Senior in collage.

I asked the kid to ID me too so I could feel good

**cnc** · 02-02-2011, 08:26 AM

Yes Rick, a bit of an inside joke. There was a bus that looked like an old fashioned trolley car and it came by the hotel parking lot about every half hour. It was great. When we got back from a ride we could have a few drinks and still have a safe way down into the town to the restaurants and bars.

I hear you. When I lived in Detroit we bought American Light beer; when family came from Ontario I would have to go over to Windsor and buy some "real" beer.

Sometimes light beer locally in Detroit we would get a 24 for $11.99 on sale.

But I am always willing to have a free one of any brand or origin...

I planned my route and mapped it on my Garmin. File is too large to attach but will email to anyone interested. Will be leaving on the Saturday and arriving on the Monday.

Would be more than willing to change my plans to meet up with others if possible.
