The trip is going great. The big Ford diesel is pulling like there's no trailer behind us. Nice weather for the weekend. It's good to be in the heartland, smell of fresh cut wheat in the air. Doug is telling some great stories.

Doug and DV have spoken and he knows we are coming. We should arrive Pentwater by 9AM.
No Mexican speed on this trip PT. Doug has been pumping diet Cokes through the back glass from the cooler in the back. |

Bill
Shoulda checked to see if anyone needed a Serpent Express trailer picked up. You'll drive about a hundred miles from the factory. Coulda gone up empty picked up a trailer and car for delivery.
Yall keep awake. Have a good trip.
