Yes, I did know that...

(We weren't very good to the Natives for a while there, were we? What a different world it was.)

Thanks to you, N.D.

Hey, I like that stuff.......but it's all in Canada! Oh, that's the idea! [Me=]. Danged if I know where that birth certificate is. Made a copy of it when I went to driving big rig, haven't looked for it since (that was almost ten years ago!).

But I will keep my eye open for it so I can make a Canadian tour in '08, God willing.

Thanks, Dave

Gotta go to plan B

Well, the vacation schedule is out and I wasn't able to get two weeks back-to-back. A change may be possible, but I won't know for a while longer.

Another fly in the ointment is that I made a major goof..the destination in Texas is San Antonio, not Abilene/Lubbock...about 300 miles difference one way. So I guess the original plan won't be do-able.

I'll revisit this when I know more.
