Got back home this evening @6:30p. I guess my foot got a little heavy on the gas pedal, since I left Ed's (Purple Penelope) house @6 ish this morning. Hmm that was a heck of a drive in short order to get home. But with warnings of inclimate weather heading into Dallas starting sometime tomorrow, I decided I wasn't ready to test the traction control on the possible ice heading our way.
Ed and Maddie, thank you very much for letting me stop off there both coming and going. Your place is great, (Even with that in house terrorist)! :yesnod I look forward to returning the favor.
Bernie and Elizabeth, I also want to thank you for setting up your B&B for my Friday and Saturday rest stop. Its was great to catch up with new friends who are on their way to becoming 'ol friends. :thumbs Let me know when you are coming to town and I can set up a meeting with my painter. I am sure Wildcat would be only too happy top give you her spot on the painting list. :willy:
The trip out there was a lot of fun. I had 4 seperate police/highway patrol cruisers come flying up on my tail with their lights on, just to slow down next to me, give my truck the once over, a thunbs up, then they backed off. The first time it really scared the hell out of me.
The parade was a lot of fun too, although I dont think Bernie wants to drive near me next time. While I did not decorate my car for the parade, I had scores of people applaud my little truck and the new paint job. I would have to say out of all those people at least 1/3 of them were kids, with comments like; That is Suweet" "Off the cuff" and "Wicked" I could not have been prouder. Will post some picks tomorrow after I clean her up, but I have been told that the pics I have posted so far do not give her justice.
Thanks again to all involved with the Florida jaunt. I had a blast!
