Svengoolie is trippin' again! October 19, 2025.

My friends and I took a cruise up to Highland Falls, New York (West Point). They had their Dodge Coronets and I followed in my Crossfire. It was great scenic route through the back roads of New Jersey and New York State.
We traveled around 100 miles round trip. We stopped at Andy's for breakfast, great food! Then we headed to a farmer's market near the gates of the West Point Visitor's Center. We didn't have enough time to go into the center, but we plan on going back in the spring. On the way back we stopped at my friend's garage to get some aerial pics of our cars.
Here are some pictures from the trip.



Driving on the back roads of New York state.

A 1966 Dodge Coronet leads the way, followed by a 1967 Dodge Coronet and my 2006 Crossfire Roadster.

A World War II M4A3E8 "Easy Eight" Sherman tank stands guard at the gate.



"Hannibal" The West Point Mule Mascot. The Army Mules are a group of mules which serve as the mascots for the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. The tradition of mules as mascots for Army dates back to 1899, when an officer at the Philadelphia Quartermaster Depot decided that the team needed a mascot to counter the Navy goat. Mules were an obvious choice, as they were used as haulers for Army gear for generations.

My Crossfire in front of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Church in Highland Falls, NY. It's directly across from the West Point Visitor's Center.
