This year on our baseball trip we decided to see other sites and attractions these minor league cities had to offer. Our first stop was the Studebaker Museum in South Bend. This featured some classic and historical cars and vehicles, including the carriage that Lincoln rode to the theater in the night he was shot. Great cars and a lot of fun.
The next day we went to a very wet Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Pictured here is Trevor with the very first Indy 500 winner (car #32). Rough day, as they park you as far away from anything as possible and make you walk in the rain to the museum and Hall of Fame. Lots of old Indy cars for us to look at, and we took a lap around the track in a bus which was very memorable. We'll be watching the race on Memorial Day weekend and reminiscing.
Our last car stop was in Auburn, Indiana with the Auburn-Cord-Duesenburg Museum. This is actually the original factory and showroom for these cars. Lots of wonderful and exotic cars that were really before their time. This museum we highly recommend. Lots of info and history, too, if you like that sort of thing.
These pics are just a very small sample of the cars we were able to see.
