Two days, three nice rides

Yesterday 7 us took an impromtu ride through northeast Maryland and into PA. After lunch, we decided to crash in on John Weese and see his garage mahal, Hugo and the other nice cars in person.

Matthew Cervi and Derek Scott had to bail a little early. Nice collection of cars, two coupes, a landshark, a 1600, 2 tiis and a 2002.

Second ride was the youngest today on the bikes. It is nice they still want to ride with pops.

Third ride, Verizon FiOS Data. I had Verizon's FiOS internet/data installed today, wicked fast!

Hey Bill: It was great having you, Neil, Wayne, Bill & Robert "drop-in".

The door is always open here in PA whenever you want to stop over. My son Justin is back home in Ohio...he enjoyed working on his Jeep in Dad's garage and he especially liked the lift - made rotating the tires real simple! :-)

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday!

John

I put together a nice drive on the spur of the moment, showed you guys some of my favorite roads, transcribed Weese's directions, navigated you through D'town, pointed Matt back toward home, and you say I bailed????

If your life is dull, perhaps your car is too new and you're not driving far enough...

I just meant you and Matthew were not in the picture at John's because you did not make the second part of the trip and fully understand both of you had commitments to your wives and small children. Neil will be in that same situation soon.

We all appreciate you putting the trip together and doing it when you did not feel well and having a small one at home. Bail to me just meant that you left us a bit early, not meant to be derogatory at all. Sorry Derek.

We always enjoy the trips you put together and seeing your great car.

Michael, The touring is on stands, drive shaft coming back off to have balanced so I drove the yellow little car, as my bride calls it.

Rob, moth balls coralled in feet of panty hose and then stuck around the heater box inside and out, will keep them critters away. Some say ajax powder ringed around the tires also keep them away.

I do the moth ball thing and so far no critters. I do drive my car every week so that discourges them too.

Dave and Molly, you two plan the next drive and we will show up for that one. How is that? You do great routes anyway. Everyone asked about you and the only thing I could say was either love or work was keeping you away, maybe both......
