August road trip to visit Mike Glore’s car collection

BMCNO members Mike and Alice Glore have invited our club to a tour of their property and car collection in Mississippi on Saturday, August 27th.

Here’s the plan:

Depart at  9:00 AM from Rouse’s at 3461 East Causeway Approach in Mandeville (the first exit off the bridge).

Braxton is approximately 130 miles, 2 1/2 hours, north from Mandeville on small highways through Covington, Bogalusa, and Angie LA,

then on through Columbia, Prentiss, Mendenhall and Braxton MS.

Here is a link to my Google Maps Route.  Save it to your phone or print and carry it.

Mike’s address is 106 Gus Phillips Lane. Braxton MS 39044

It is on the East side of Hwy 49.

From Hwy 149 in Braxton you would enter Cox Road, drive 3 plus miles, cross a bridge and see a metal building with a red silo attached on the right side of the road. 

MIke has cars of various marques, over 12 cars and a few motorcycles in his “barn.”

He warns that no one under any circumstances is to use the fireman’s pole. 

Alice will also provide a tour of their home, her grandparents’ 1879 farmhouse. 

Mike recommended after touring the collection we have lunch  at Jose’s Restaurant and Grill in Magee MS (834 Franklin DR SW, 601-439-7155).

We will return home by the same route.

Mike and Alice have offered to have drinks available.

I want to tell them how many of us to expect by Monday August 22nd.
