Cruisin' the Coast
October, 2004
The Plan
| Any Glassic or Shay owners or others are invited to convoy along if
they wish. Email me if you are thinking of joining us: GlassicAnnex@aol.com Here is a MAP QUEST map of the area. Some of us are staying in Bay St. Louis, on the left edge of the map. |
In July, 2004. Louis (car 1121) told me (Don) about "Cruisin' the Coast -- a huge cruise-in near his home in Mississippi. He invited me to come participate. I then told Dave (car 1279) about it and HE wanted to attend also. This cruise is on the gulf of Mexico coast and is in the Biloxi - Gulfport area of Mississippi. When I checked hotels, and casino resorts in July, everything was booked. Even smaller motels were all booked. Louis checked with locals, and yes, not many places had rooms, and, of course, all of their prices were high because of the large crowd expected. Louis found the motel listed below, which is on the main highway of the cruise, but toward the end of the run. Although this is not likely a top-end motel, they did have rooms at a low price of $69 or $59 for one person. |
| Here are links to the website for the cruise and for the motel that
we are staying at.
The motel manager "Miss Connie" said that they had rooms available, but neither Louis or I will can vouch for this motel. |
| Don and Dave will take two days to meander up from the Tampa Bay area of Florida, stopping along the way somewhere along Rt. 10. That info will be added when we book rooms along the way. |
| This is not OUR event, we are just attending and inviting anyone to join us. |
