    My wife and I have participated in hundreds of competitive Rallys over the years. They are a lot of fun and challenging at the same time. It is kind of like a scavenger hunt on wheels. You are given a number of questions that you have to find the answers to along the Rally route. There is a time limit to complete the answers and find your way to the end point. So if your son is old enough to be able to look for the answers and complete the answer sheet while you drive he should be fine being your Navigator. It could be a good "team building" event to do together. The end point is normally divulged when entrants start the Rally so that everyone has the same opportunities.

    You are correct, it was the 13th but we were just able to work out a plan with the Ending Point restaurant that now allows us to extend registration.

    Go out to the garage and look at your car. Doesn't it look lonely just sitting there? Come out and join us on Sunday for a beautiful fall drive!

    I'll be there today. I'll probably get there just before 10. It looks like the first car will leave around 11.

    See you there!
