Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends... Morning Don, Gerry, Allan.

How's everyong doing today?

It's my Friday... that always seems to brighten up the spirits a bit.

I get to go out in the field this afternoon... if the weather cooperates that should be a nice break from the office.

Morning Tiny. Just working on a couple of buildings and finish the motorhome so it can get driven to Seattle next week. Looks like crappy weather here for the next week, so it looks like more shop time, maybe some work on the paint booth...

I would like to get a legend car to try out one of the grand kids in, he is 13 years old and as tall as me and a very good driver. Just getting to big for his 1/4 midget.

Don, how are you getting the motorhome to Seattle?

Certainly you aren't driving it there... Maybe Harley?

I drive in Salem every day. No, they're certainly not as courteous as rural drivers, but they are NOTHING like Portland drivers.

Salem has it's share of dumb drivers, but they aren't aggressive. Portland is loaded with dumb, aggressive drivers.

Don,

What needs doing to the motor home before you call for the driver?
