Update regarding the road: I was out that way again today and the stretch that was graded is already done. There is another 2 1/2 mile stretch further down the road that is graded now, but that part is not until past the last stop on the cruise. However, it is the shortest way home for anyone coming from the east. It's possible that will be done too before the 15th rolls around, but I'm just putting it out there so there are no surprises.
Also, I have a primary and secondary meeting spot scoped out. The primary spot is still Big Y supermarket, 1180 Thorndike St (RT 32), Palmer, MA 01069, at noon. From there we head north on 32 to the center of Ware where 32 merges with RT 9 east. Just past the center of Ware 32 and 9 split again and we will be continuing on 32 north. Right before that split there is a nice straight stretch of road with a large shoulder where we can regroup, as we will probably have a few cars get seperated going from Palmer to Ware. The second spot is right in front of an ice cream store called Janine's Frosty, the address is 149 East Street, Ware, MA.
If anyone has any questions or wants more detailed info let me know.
