Just got done uploading all of my 400 or so pics from the last week to a
simple webpage.
We got in at 8:20 PM EDT. : ) I would have posted sooner, but Chris was
looking at the pics John posted (me too ;-) ). I still haven't figured out
all of the little stuff like John did, but then driving from Chicago to
Colorado Springs without a working speedometer (and odometer) makes it a little
difficult to keep track of the totals. Thanks Jim for fixing it, it worked
great all the way back, and it's within 2 mph. : ) Other than starter
issues, the car ran great for it's really big shake down run, after being
completely blown apart 2 years ago. It never missed a beat (even in the 111
degree heat), or going from 100 FT above sea level to the Rocky Mountains. We
found the 1 water leak in the windshield seal (after getting caught in the
rain in Nebraska), so I'll have to investigate that one of these days.
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on the starter Jim, but there was
another 1 hiding out in the "Wolfe Warehouse", that I was able to procure.
I was however glad to get back into Michigan though, as I think this had to
be the most windiest road trip I've ever been on. In fact it was only the
last 50 miles that we didn't have any wind, coming or going out. :O Like I
told Sue, (when I had my hands off the wheel) that this is the first time
since we left, that I could do that.
We however did have a great time with everyone, and meeting new friends
along the way was just a bonus. We might not have done the Pikes Peak hill
climb, but we did get some other stuff done to make the ride back, that much
easier/better. I just hope those Invaders close by the fire don't lose
everything they had. It's just a bummer that it had to happen at all, let alone
while the Invasion was going on. Our hearts and prayers are with you all.
