How about a travel day encompassing three states and the National Corvette Museum? Three states in one day isn’t typical for us Texans. We went through Kentucky from South West to North East in 235 miles. That’s just a tick more than San Antonio to San Angelo. Coming down the hill into Cincinnati and crossing the Ohio River was interesting at rush hour. We took a couple of hours to take in the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green. No time this trip to check out the NCM race track across IH65 from the museum but I included an overhead picture of the facility in the gallery below.
The Corvette Museum was as top notch as expected. The highlight for Zoom Zoom was seeing the 8 Corvettes that had fallen into the sink hole on February 12, 2014. Three of the eight have been restored. The others are on display in the condition they were in when retrieved from the sink hole. There are informative displays explaining how the sink hole happened and the extent of the work required to correct the damage and prevent future issues. They have the border of the sink hole outlined on the floor and the border of the underlying cave outlined as well.
They had an additional display of NASA Astronaut Corvettes. GM really worked their marketing back in the day and had Astronauts in Corvettes. There was also additional NASA memorabilia on display with the Corvettes.
