Thats because he put it in the Off topic area, you have to recieve and invite to the off topic....

You don't have a handshake..yet... whats your user ID over there?
Have you completed your registration, Last new user joined on the 15th, so I suspect you didn't complete the reg process...

docwyte has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her.

If you are trying to send this message to multiple recipients, remove docwyte from the recipient list and send the message again.

You need 5 posts over there before the owners of the off topic realm can invite you...

So go post 5 posts, and I will see if I can get you hooked up!

make one of your posts here http://reutterwerk.com/forums/showth...t=7996&page=12

Oh crap, I forgot it was in the secret off topic area.... you have to be invited to get in.

Ok – I’ll repost it here…in a minute.

Hi folks, I been away for almost two weeks on a road trip (miss me?).
My mother was diagnosed with Leukemia earlier this year and about two wakes a go I got the ‘time to come out soon’ call. My parents live out in Santa Fe - 1950 miles away – and my family flew out in June. This time I put my wife on a ‘plane (she is an excellent care giver) and made plans for a road trip with my 10 year old son. I still had to finish up a little work on the Audi S4 – I was in the middle of a suspension restoration (new shocks, springs, bearings, calipers, rotors, upper and lower A arms and a new set of wheels and tires). I had to overnight the last couple of parts to I could jump in the car a drive out. The ‘road test’ of the suspension work was a 1950 mile drive in 48 hours. All went smooth.

The stay in Santa Fe was not real long, I got to spend a couple of days with Mom before she passed away last Monday. She was ready to go and passed in her sleep. We stayed a couple of days and it was time to come back. We had planned a trip out west with my son for later in August to we decided to take the long way home through the Rockies. I had lived in Aspen in the summers back in the 60’s as a little kid so as a tribute to Mom I decided it would be good to visit some of the places we visited back then and take a lot of pictures on the way. Mom was a big fan of the arts and nature…

So here are some of the pics from the trip back.
