On MOA III we went up the East coast of
North America with the theme being the Tale of Evangeline and how it tied
Louisiana, USA to Nova Scotia, Canada.
The theme for the East Coast MOA VI will be the conflict
of war and how it evolved into the North America of today. We will visit some
sites of the French/British War of the mid seventeenth century, the American
War of Independence in the latter part of the seventeenth century, the British
/American War of 1812 to 14, and the US Civil War. We will visit the
birthplaces of the two countries of North America, and their capital cities and
in some cases we will visit the city where the wars began. These cities include
Boston, Philadelphia, Washington DC, and Ottawa.
We will visit early villages of both
countries including a 1700’s colonial village known as Williamsburg in Virginia
and a Canadian Loyalist Village of the early eighteenth century known as King’s
Landing in New Brunswick. Two other highlights of the trip will be a visit to
the Biltmore Estate and a visit to a small house on Prince Edward Island where
Anne of Green Gables was written.
MOA VI begins in Savannah, GA. on Thursday Sept. 10th 2015 and
ends in Norfolk, VA on Sunday Oct. 18th, 2015. Between these two
dates we will have visited 5 Canadian Provinces and eight US States and driven
as far north as Ottawa Canada, and driven 5000 miles. The timing of the trip is
hoped to capture the beautiful fall colors in New England.

Judy and I are quite disappointed that we will be unable to join MOA VI. I owned my Morgan for 45 years and had many an adventure over those four and half decades. But one of the best adventures, if not the best, was the MOA that Judy and I joined in 2005. Elaine, Ken, Steve et al. made one heck of a team. It's wonderful to see the upcoming MOA called the Steve Roake Memorial MOA VI.
