Thanks guys!

Jim, Life certainly is what you make of it!

A realistic outlook is what I try to maintain. If you try to fool yourself into thinking things aren't what they really are... who is really the fool?

See you all soon!

Hey if your route takes you close to Detroit, Mighigan, stop by. I'll grill the burgers while you build my elevator trim tab! Yes I so nice that I will let you experience the pure joy that comes from bending that darn tab :)

Mark, you know what... it just might!

Here's the story:

In 2008 I made this solo motorcycle trip and this is the root of the thread we are in. I visited many people and did so many things... it was absolutely beyond words. I was going through my divorce and I had the where-with-all to make a 12,000 mile solo bike trip.

Fast forward to this year: Do you know Antony Parchment? He is building a -7A in Michigan. He formerly lived in Maine and he is a good friend of mine. He moved to your area about a year ago and I have been considering visiting him on my way to OSH this year.

If I do make it up that way, we shall get together! If I don't... you GOTTA meet Antony! He is a HELLUVA guy and his precision and attention to detail is impeccable!

Sooooooo... do you like premium ales? Maybe bitter and hoppy? Are you going to OSH?
