Bob.
You'll be lucky if you get the Maxwell to start in this weather. I'd wait 'til spring. Maybe fliffy will help crank.

Neals,
We need a full report. SOON!

Papaw, Pick me up on your way through, Bob's never going to make it this far in the Maxwell.

Did anyone take the video tour? This is ONE man's collection and most of it is underground!

[Papaw]

John, you'd have to ride on the back of my BMW, but we could pull Bob's Maxwell if needed!

Thank you,  johnsironsanctuary!!!   This is one of the most impressive things I've seen, and heard, in a very long time.  The museum is extraordinary, the collections more than simply impressive. 

Watching the videos, I'm equally impressed by the man, himself.  I'm going to take the tour (the video tour) over and over.  And over.  I'm going to get down pat his observation that "When people tell you it can't be done, they mean they can't do it.  It doesn't mean *you* can't do it."  There's his wisdom, and the wisdom of his parents in that statement. 

What a wealth of knowledge and perception!

Neals,
We need a full report. SOON!

Sorry guys but it won't be soon. Its about a 7 hour drive for me one way. That means an overnighter trip which is hard for me to arrange. Maybe in the summer. Its on my bucket list.
