There is a reason I came back. A bunch of "adults" acting like kids. Nancy is so patient to put up with all the male humor and have everything so well organized. I know this is a lot of work for Curt, but he loves to show off his new toys.
I was hoping to spot the point where you were supposed to stop for lunch, at a waterfall beyond the buffalo farm, after about 20 miles with nary a driveway or utility pole.
Making progress on the vibration problem, Dave. Not straightforward, making the new tie rod match the old since they're floppy at each end, and new and old are not quite the same design. Did it different ways. I should get out my string stands, regardless. (Background: The front right wheel is wobbly, tie rod definitely bad, maybe bearing, too. Issue evaluated by a test drive by Dave and Jay.) I'll get the left rear balanced (weights fell off) after seeing what this does.
Bob, I'll do the polishing later this week. Promise.
Tony C. with the wine bottle Jay Kempf now with the wine bottle!
Tony C. carries his wine bottle around and doesn't seem to put it down anywhere very often. I noticed that Jay Kempf became the honorary wine bottle holder in a later picture. Was there a ceremonial passing of the bottle?

There were multiple wine bottles - enough to go around
Got the tie rod in. The vibration is reduced 80% - I probably would not notice it if I weren't looking for it. Tomorrow I'll take the left rear wheel in to be re-balanced (weights had fallen off). I'll check the front right wheel bearing, though I am not calibrated for that.
Dr. Bob noticed his alignment aid taped to the old rod and wrote me. He's been in the east, working, but was unable to make either SITM or Camp 928.
