2008 Ides of March Rally


 It was March in the Midwest and the temperatures were above freezing about as often as they weren't.  Time to go for it and hold our first driving event of 2008.  Though delayed one week past the 15th, the brave and well insulated members of Strada Fantasma ventured forth from cold garages to the wilds of northwestern Missouri.  Our route was just enough to get your pulse up above normal in spots and scenic in others.  We ended up in Riverwood Winery just north of Iatan, Missouri.  A good time was had by all!
