The Caravan

 

In 2018, we learned of a group that forms a caravan each year in the summer and fall and drives a planned route through the scenic rural areas and farmlands of northeastern Ohio. There are planned stops at interesting places along the way with a stop for lunch so people can meet and talk. On the morning of the trip, everyone meets at a pre-determined place and is given a map with the route and stops marked. You drive at your own pace and can stay with the group or take a detour and catch up with the group later. It’s up to you. The trip takes most of the day but time passes quickly and we’re always a little sad when it’s time to go home. Our first trip with the caravan was in the fall and we had a great time. The rolling hills of northeastern Ohio are beautiful when the leaves are in full fall color. Since our first trip, the caravan has been one of the things we do every year.
