Finally Made it to AZ

Interesting road trip from MN to our new winter home in Salome. The 77 made it fine, except for blown radiator in Texas. Think of the chances of finding a replacement for a 77 460 on a Sat. aft in town of 1500! We were lucky. Then we hit a Flagstaff blizzard reminiscent of what we left behind in MN. But we're here now, enjoying everything.

Welcome. Sounds like God was looking over you, I call things like finding what I think is impossible "God things"

Wish I could make the the spring meet, would love to meet some fellow Ford lovers. Unfortunately I've got to get back to work by April 1st. But next year I'm planning to be here longer than 7 weeks. Maybe if I play the AZ lottery? We drove 2 vehicles down here, the 77 PU will be staying here, we'll take the Explorer home.
