The northern boys might still have snow on the lawns in early April. I'm guessing that's a big reason the later dates are in front.
If you throw a party, they will come.
As for me...if you throw a party I will be there ahead of the RAT so I can have at least one beer.

Speaking of stops...
I've done the I-75 route many times over the years. Found an old copy of this book about 10 years ago at my local library.

Lists lots of cool stops.
