    MAY all your dreams come true!

    12 hours unbroken sleep was nice on a busy week. Forgot to mention...after crossing Alexandria Bay if you hit "avoid tolls" in Google, and you happen to be headed to West Virginia, you'll be treated to a spectacular Sunday drive of scenery, driving thru and on the edges of a valley that...

    MAY all your dreams come true!

    It does seem slow. Is everybody busy, or did they push their vans off a cliff? Started off Sunday night and saw home long enough to sleep in a bed. Empty again in Quebec. Can't get the dang clutch fan off even with a 400 pc toolkit. Need an 8 mm allen key that happens to be 17" long Think I...
