Must have been just me, sorry about that.

A week from now we'll be on our way out there, with a lay over in Indiana to visit some family for the day Wednesday, then on to Nebraska Thursday sometime. Can't wait, I need a few days to just be a bum and look at old wrenches.

I was hoping to get a Groton Carriage Co. display together to take out, not gonna happen.

It would be great to be able to meet you in person Papaw.

With the past few years I've had, I've learned not to put things off that you want to do. I know to many people that have passed lately that had a lot of things left they always wanted to do.
As Morgan Freeman stated in Shawshank Redemption (though it was probably taken from somewhere else)... "Get busy living, or get busy dying". I prefer the first one, and am going to do things in the next few years, as finances allow, that I have always wanted to. I've seen 30 of our great states and have every intention of setting foot in every last one before I croak. Hawaii will be my last, the only reason I'll go there is to pay tribute to the great men that were lost in 1941.
