CATL 2024: C-bodies At The Lake on Saturday, Sept. 7, 2024 ("hub-and-spoke" to the Studebaker Museum in South Bend, IN)

[MONC440]

Overnighted in Michigan City.
Arrived home Sunday about 12:30 via Turnpike. 360 miles in total.
The Barge performed well (the oil light gremlin took the day off) but the brakes now seem to have lost the 'power' aspect.
As this will probably be the last road trip of the Barge for 2024 I can devote some time to tinkering.
Omni and Mrs Omni

It was nice to meet you both. Glad you made it home safely.

I wish to thank everyone who participated in this year's CATL. It was great to meet members in person. Overall, it went pretty smoothly. The Studebaker Museum was an excellent choice of venue. Due to its size its a pretty tall order to see it all in one day. For those who appreciate the origins of the beginnings of the auto industry, this is a must see. Here are our cars as we parked at the museum entrance.

The next group of photos shows the origins of the Studebaker Co as a wagon and carriage manufacturer.
