Ride Greyhound 

2016 Out West, Minnesota, Road Trip


Greyhound Bus Lines can trace it origin back to Hibbing, Minnesota, in 1914 when Carl Wickman began offering rides in a 7 passenger car manufactured by Hupp Motors in Detroit. The Greyhound Bus Museum in Hibbing does a nice job of interpreting the first several decades of the history of this iconic bus line with a promotional film, many artifacts and photos, and a collection of classic buses that evoke family and personal stories of travel, troop transport, and class trips. Definitely worth the detour!

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
