Sunday Sept. 21st:
We generally stop for breakfast somewhere, I don’t have a planned place, but we are working on it,
then we usually run over to the Black Star Farms Winery on the Leelenau penninsula and pick
up a couple of things and then make our way home. We normally just retrace our steps up on Friday
with a stop in the afternoon around 2PM or so for some more chow.

Here is the hotel info again.

The hotel is going to be the Quality Inn, 1492 US 31 North, Traverse City, MI 49686.
The Phone number is (231)929-4423. They have a block of 25 rooms reserved for us right now and if we need more that can be arranged. They are all supposed to be grouped together to make it easier to watch the cars and stay together overall.
The rooms are $89 + Tax per night. You must call and make the RESV. yourself and must tell them that you are with the Factory Five Owners Group to get the rates. You can talk to whoever answers the phone to make the reservations.

If you decide to join us please send me a email so we can get our numbers set for the restraunts and stops along the way.
Thanks,
Todd
