Thanks Bruce. It was a 'project'.

Good to see you and the wagon too as you pulled out for the cruise. We got completely separated from the cruise when trying to turn right on Cedar, and of course I was in the lead with 10-15 cars behind me without a cruise map since they ran out. So, Tina pulled up the cruise map on her phone and we got back on the route for most of it, but missed the turn onto Dodd, so ended up too far west in Lakeville. Oh well, we made our own country side cruise.

Our group of friends pulled back together at where we left for the cruise, and helped the POP cruise team finish returning golf carts, and they asked for our feedback, so we told them next year to be ready for parking a bunch of people to show up late if the weather is iffy like we did, and to put signs at the turning points of the cruise so that the late comers like us will know which way to go when separated, since they ran out of maps. They welcomed the feedback.

Do they not have enough signs telling you where to go and where to turn on each corner?

No signs out at all.

The director was telling us that since the cruise crosses through 3 counties, that creates problems.

The signage was poor except for the ~20% who were planning to park down town.
The group I was driving with got chopped up by the HWY 50 and 70 stop lights, then by a huge truck dropping gravel.
I know the route well so not problem but went with ~4-5 cars most of the way.
My 235 6-Cly in a 4000+ LB car proved to be a disappointment for the folks at the burn-out stops. i felt better when i realized a guy in a really nice 71 or 72 Chevelle did not do any either (although I'm sure it was for reasons other than is could not do one).
