[Fot] MOTRAH-007 aftermath

[Bill Babcock]

Bill drove the Devin--he did well, but the car broke on Saturday-- 
transmixer gave up the ghost. Probably very expensively by the looks  
of the metal in the oil--it's a dog box. Ouch.

Tony didn't drive. I should have had him take Peyote out, but I was  
having too much fun.
