Party on, Man. Lots of great places to look at. Besides "no people", are you looking for more or less snow or anything in particuler? Are you trailering the shovel?

Pitchy - y'all enjoy yourselves and give that van a good trial run. Expect you to have a great time. And if you get down this way give me a call and I'll tour you around my beautiful part of the great state of Arkansas .

Hey fellers we are home, put 3,350 miles on the van driving to Washington state to see an old buddy.
We were going to travel more but my health seems to be deteriorating and it`s not fun if your in the dumps and sick all the time.
Sorry we didn`t get a chance to visit everyone we intended too, saw Malamute in Cody for a few minutes then we headed north to I-90 and home
Here`s a picture of me and my buddy standing by a 64 Ford 1 ton he restored.

Actually I`m pretty bummed out, tired of feeling sick all the time and having gut aches.
Every doctor and VA covers everything up and does nothing, and I`m having a hard time about the Snoop dog :(

Pete, all is ok at the home place.
Griff, we are just getting back from the trip.
