Marge says, "Our favorite car show is the 55 and 57 Chevy show in May. Try to go every year."
 
Grace writes, "Our favorite car show is 'shades of the past', we always get a hotel room with a balcony so we can watch the parade of cars, going up and down the parkway. We sit out there in the evenings, after a good meal and sometimes a show. It is one of our favorite vacations."
