Winter of 2008... Son just graduating from Marine boot camp. Will have flown 
from Chicago to Reno on American Airlines with Trish. Will pick up Crash's 
Bugeye and drive down PCH to San Diego. Will have to stop for gas in every 
state at least once. (Darn those tiny gas tanks!) 3200+ miles in a 
48-year-old car... Will have been almost as "exciting" as driving a 1972 MG 
Midget parts car over 4000 miles for the 2006 BABE Rally.
