Brian, I have no idea of how the numbering system worked. But knowing Dave, I'll bet there was a reason for it.Bill Lacy

Jumer's Castle was another good place to stay. Turn on the lights and it was still too dark to shave.
The fairgrounds are great memories, but, the golf course is much nicer. I park my car on Wednesday and don't start it again until I leave on Saturday.
I judge 68/69 engine compartment for Gold Certification and am honored to follow in the footsteps of some very knowledgeable folks including our own Dick Whittington, Paul Noble and Stan Falenski. I'll never be as good as those guys.

Re: Bloomington in two weeks!
How timely that today it was announced that the former Holiday Inn (has been several different names since '91) has been sold to a land developer and will be torn down. It was already closed. I don't have any pictures of the motel action back then.78 white L82 M21- Top

Re: Bloomington in two weeks!
Michael, I don't have any IL relatives; my relatives are in Texas, Missouri & NJ.
For the first couple years of 'Corvette Corral' I didn't need a motel since all I had to do was walk across the highway to the apartment...which is still there. Will post a picture in a couple of years of whatever replaces the old Holiday Inn !78 white L82 M21- Top
