On December 23rd Plateau Corvette Club members took one final drive for 2021, Pop-Up, Flash-Dash, Ugly Christmas Sweater optional – pre-Christmas Cruise! A beautiful ride through the curves, hills and hollers of Tennessee countryside. They shared a meal and jolly good times at Monell’s at the Manor in Nashville. They had great weather (topped out at 63 degrees) and beautiful sunny skies all day long! It was a “sleigh-ride” Corvette style! Thanks to those who were able to break away for the day and enjoy some “wind therapy” during the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season!
