Default Where were all the Vettes going this weekend? I70 in Kansas

I was coming back from Lawrence to Garden City Sunday the 29th and saw SEVERAL C5 and C6 Corvettes and other misc. hotrods heading east on I-70 as far west as Salina. How come I didn't get the memo? Then again, it was raining so hard at one point that I almost had to pull off the interstate, so I would have been a mess had I been in one of the Vettes....

(I was in my work truck)

Cool! But that doesn't explain the other misc. 50's era hot rods I saw. Were there cars of that variety in attendance?

The Salina show was the Kustom Kemps of America (KKOA) show. They hold it at about the same time every year. You can read more about them at http://www.kustomkempsofamerica.com/
