<VV> Corvairs, rare indeed

[ScottyGrover at aol.com]

You travelled largely through thinly populated states; note in your  
Communique how few chapters of CORSA are west of Chicago or the Twin  Cities.  Now 
if you had gone through the Denver area or maybe the San  Francisco Bay 
area, you might have seen more 'Vairs.

My wife  and I just got home from a 6,100 mile driving vacation trip from  
SE
Michigan to Washington State.  We took a different route west than  we took
east.  We saw only 3 Corvairs the whole time.  One in a  junkyard, one in a
person's back yard jacked up, and one out by the road  "for sale".
We traveled old route 66 in Illinois and stopped at a few  historic gas
stations and museums.  
One sad moment on my trip was  when we stopped in Post Falls, Idaho to have
lunch and buy a new T-shirt  from "The Hot Rod Cafe".  Unfortunately the
place is closed and the  building is for sale.  I guess all the car
enthusiasts in Idaho didn't  buy enough cheese burgers.  The '32 Ford coupe
is still on the roof  and can be seen for miles.
The mountain states are still beautiful and the  plains states are the most
boring to drive thru as the drought has killed  anything green.  We saw
evidence of many forest fires including  Yellowstone Park.  I was glad to 
see
the National Park Service is  still using those yellow 1930's tour busses!
