Update on the trip.
We left Cabin Fever on Sunday, January 19th and made it to Fairmont, WV. We had dinner at Murial’s, the Italian Restaurant where my wife and I went 35 years ago for our first wedding anniversary.

On Monday morning, we drove to Lexington, KY and Parrallelmotion hosted us for a tour of his amazing collection. As a bonus, we ran a 6” bore Rider (alpha type stirling engine) made by the Rider Engine Co. ca. 1880. The Rider-Ericsson Co. was a later successor company after 1895. It’s probably around 1 hp on a good day.
After saying our goodbyes, we drove on to Nashville where we toured the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Johnny Cash Museum, the Hermitage (Andrew Jackson’s home) and Antique Archeology (American Pickers Store). We finished off the night with a big dinner with two of my friends from Nashville.
Today, we are driving to Birmingham. We are visiting Benny this afternoon and then the Barber Motorsport Museum on Thursday.
