Cool, AAA is a life saver. You oughta look and see if we have any board members between point A and B. A place to take an hr from the road is not only safer (asfar as driving all those hrs) but I gotta say, every board member I have met has been a pretty good experiance.
I treated chevy_fatman to dinner not too long ago when he was passing through on a road trip. Sat around shooting the sh!t and checking out each other's trucks. (he had never seen a Longhorn before) Always makes for a good time IMO. Nothing like being able to say I have a friend in all of the 50 states (between my 7 yrs army and this board, I do have a friend in every state) and even cooler when you have been to 23 of the 50 and stopped at someone's house. |
