This morning we got up early to take a side trip with three other cars and groups of people, from the Chula Vista Resort to the Mecum Auctions headquarters in Walworth, Wisconsin.
One of our new friends is on the police force in Wisconsin, and has a close personal friend working at Mecum, who offered us a private tour and visit. Amazing is the best word to describe it if your a car buff in any way. We saw cars ranging from approx. $40k up to $2 Mil USD, with background history stories included, all kinds of memorabilia, and a collection of vintage outboard boat motors.
Then we stopped for lunch at a small town named Walworth in Wisconsin, before pressing on to our meeting place for lunch, where we caught up to our caravan group and rejoined them for last leg of our trip into Effingham Illinois, for the night.
Later in the day, we went over Mid-America Corvettes for a dinner event including entertainment.
All in all, a great day of driving in the sunshine, and visiting with some very nice people.
