Corvettes

As promised we are done with Bourbon Distilleries, today it's corvettes.  Gloria ad I have passed by the National Corvette museum numerous times over the years but we were in too big a rush to get from point A to point B.  This day was different.  We were only going from Bardstown KY to Nashville TN so we had plenty of time for a stop.  They had a parking lot for RV's so in we went.

It was pretty cool seeing all of the different generations of corvettes and special edition models.  I especially enjoyed the "cut-aways" where you could see what made the cars tick under the bodies.
There was even a race car donated by Procter and Gamble.  The car was modified by a group of P&G engineers as part of an engineering competition, which they won.

Also very interesting was the displays of the big sink hole that swallowed, I think 9, of the cars a few years ago.  They displayed the damaged cars that were pulled out of the sink hole and showed the massive undertaking of filling the hole.

They also had a 50's style dinner for lunch.  What more could you ask for in a pit stop on the interstate.
