Hey Mike
If you make it further to Rochester and decide to take a side trip
off I90 to take the more scenic Niagara Parkway / Route 18 to Canada,
do drop by. I'm in Fairport NY right of I490 on the way trough
Rachacha.
If you are going through Niagara Falls and onward in Canada (ey!) to
Deetroit, do consider this route. There is another LiMBO member in
the town of Barker NY further on Route 18. You will enjoy the
Western NY coastline of Lake Ontario, quite nice.
Call me at (716-377-4161), I've got a large driveway where you
can park and work if you need to. There are 2 great repair shops
close by if needed and a good part shop (Euclid VW Parts)
If you continue towards Buffalo and run into problems, there are
several other pretty good shops out that way.
Good Luck, I'm envious and will do the same sort of trip in 2 more
summers.
PS my kids love dogs
