I will be real disappointed if you don't have a boat by the time I get
there. Might be bringing a car with me instead of the bike. The bride is
getting tired of the bike. You know the song "Happy Wife Happy Life"
Please don't mention dates on line. I need to keep the pirates off
guard.




Crap. The pressure is on already.

BTW .... I don't have the Harley anymore either.
Getting smart in my old age. Down to my '65 VW Bus and a Mustang GT for
fun.

Not even a Porche? Did you ever get in touch with the VW collector in
Oregon?




My older son has the Porsche now. He wouldn't stop drooling over it, so I
gave it to him.

I don't remember the VW guy in Oregon. The bus I have flunked inspection
last
fall because it needs new tie-rods and bushings in the front end. The guy
I go to
is usually pretty forgiving about some things, but I have to agree with him,
when he jacked it up and wiggled the front tires around it scared the crap
out of me.

I drove it home with the big "R" sticker in the window and stuck it in the
garage for the winter.
Yesterday I went down to a foreign car repair shop not far from me and they
said they could fix it up for me. So, Monday I will drive it down there for
repairs.

The bus is a blast. 65 mph wide open. About 5 feet in first gear,
another 20 feet in second, then it's home to the races in third and forth.
