<p>I'm still here from the day the list was started, and before.
Times and places have changed so I don't really have much of
anything to say. I'm currently living near Crescent City,
California in that semi isolated area usually referred to as being
behind the redwood curtain (i.e. isolated and harder to get to).
I've the only Triumph currently being used as a daily driver.
There is a gray TR3 not far away that very seldom gets driven by
someone not interested in Triumph comradery and a black TR3 about
15 miles up north which I have only seen twice. Then there are a
couple stalled TR3 projects in garages. No real Triumph comradery
here and no signs of the other TRs. So nothing really to write
about. And of course there isn't the traffic nor comradery on
this list that used to exist. I'm still here but with nothing
really to say or share. I've recently replaced the U-joints and
the clutch slave cylinder that have worn out. Nothing newsworthy.
Other than that she's still a daily driver, but gets used mostly
as a grocery getter. No club rides other than one or two drives a
year with a couple local MGB and Big Healey owners. <br>

<p>Here, still driving but nothing to write about.<br>
