Coming to the SF Bay Area? Plan Ahead.

[sirocco@telocity.com (Randy B)]

As I write this Eric is probably somewhere in the middle of Nevada in a snow
storm.

I picked up Eric at SJ airport exactly on time...he called my cell phone as
I was pulling into the gate :)
Eric, or should I say Grizzly Adams (must be damn cold in Denver this time
of year), and I went to ND where we met up with Tim.
They BS'd about TDI's and hopping up diesels and then Tim showed us the new
Jetex (sp?) exhaust he is offering for our cars. BTW Nice poster Tim!!!! 8^0
(I will Definitely! be buying this system for Mars this summer...beautiful
and looks to be very high quality).
Eric and I then went to lunch and then to pick up the Caddy.
Nice truck, only rust was in the bed and the truck was amazingly straight.
He followed me the long trip (50mi.) to Craigs...Damn was it hard to stay in
the right lane and keep under 80mph!!
We did a once-over for the long trip and while changing tires F->R Craig and
I started pretending to be Eric's pit crew except I almost started removing
the lugnuts off the side of the truck Craig wasn't lifting  he he. (I think
I will stay in my current career path)
Eric, Dick, Craig, Dana, the spirit of Tosha, and I all had a great time
shootin' the shit last night even though it was like FREEZING outside.

Eric left here about 9am with Brian's Autopower rollcage (dude you better
instal it someday!!!!!) and the 2H w/.75-5th trans I sold him in the bed.
Hey, it's a truck, would have been a shame to travel all the way back to
Colorado empty-bedded.
It was great having Eric out here, can't wait till Cincinati when I can
crash at his pad.

Oh, I think Eric may have stuck something in the light socket last
night....not exactly sure what, but his hair was standing straight up on end
when he rolled off the couch in the morning......he he he.
