2nd day of Amos

Wham!! ShaZaamm!!



Two hours- 50+ miles)DRIVE this afternoon in my 1969, red, Triumph TR6.

Charging down the highway at 70 mph, a red Trooper SUV
starts honking and waving and thumbs up at me.

Side by side doing 70 mph, I grab a BCF card and manage to
get it into the passenger's hand. A few miles later, I reach
over and grab his busines card at 70 mph.

My car at 70 mph is not all that quite so I THINK he
was telling me he owns an old British car.

I'll have to phone call him and find out.

So far, I have enjoyed over 150 miles and many nice hours
spent simply driving Amos. Not looking for breakdown, just
enjoying where I live.

It's a good thing that Dale wasn't around when the wagon trains were going across the wilderness. Can you imagine the amount of wooden spares on one of those trips????

So, 8 of those mules are spares in case the other 8 die?

Only for Borax.

I think that they were taking that boat on the Salt Flats from the looks of the painting.

Giddy-up................
