Thought you might find this amusing, my hubby really hates the car, he is 6'1ish and says it kills his back etc. So I offered to fly him out there to join this fun weekend but he has decided that he will drive his bug and follow me.........apparently he lived there at one time and wants to show me around some areas that I would not take the Sky (gravel roads) what the heck is out on gravel roads that I would want to see? My suggestion was still fly him out there and maybe rent a car for a day and go where he wants. Either way still going to cost more money. Maybe I can send him UPS..........LOL
Location: New Diff, so no leaks; Brake clunk gone, nothing but the rumble left

Tried that this time, she was to fly out on the 22nd of April and I was going to pick her up at the airport. I left the 17th, and just got into Texas when the cell phone rang, and had to turn around and head back to Michigan. Needless to say, I drove 2419.7 miles towards the LV Nationals, only to never arrive.
Last year I didn't even get to leave town...daughter had the grandson the week I was to leave, so I can feel your pain.
Better luck with Denver next year. It must have been going through Texas that got you in trouble.

The East Coast Caravan Contingent (ECCC) got formed in the Wilmington parking lot last Saturday. Did anyone notice that the NASSM website is missing a Solstice? We need a Solstice. Amelia sure was purty when she was new...
That is why there is a thread seeking submission of a logo. Logo will be used on the website and other materials for the NASSM in Denver.
You have not been shy about making submissions before, don't stop now. You still have my email, so you know where to send them.
