Tim, I did a 200 mile round trip out west also but didn't leave the house till 1 pm. I decided to make a surprise visit to Lowell's place out in Sterling.
What a surprise, after driving a hundred miles, nobody home!
I stuck around about 20 minutes and started towards Oregon when about a half mile away from his house I spotted Lowell and his family going towards his house, he also saw me and pulled over and was definitely surprised.
Anyway I spent about an hour with him sitting in his garage shooting the bull and drinking diet Pepsi. (No alcohol, Blas!)
On the way back ended up going north on Rt 2 going through Oregon, through Byron and then Rt.72 east. I j just came in from the garage after 20 minutes of cleaning my windshield.
You can't appreciate the long drive Lowell has to make to see us in our local area till you tale that long drive by yourself in a Cobra. He must really love us to go that distance!
Now for the next trip to see the distance Eric in Bloomington has to drive!
Car show in St. Charles on Labor Day!
More info to follow!
