Ice on the wings???

Got below 60 deg. and they can't fly??

Get the travel bugs over before you get the real car on the road, the rest of the trip will be uneventful.

Hey Mike, that's great. I'm glad you got it back. Next time you decide to sell it, let me have first dibs, OK?

It doesn't happen very often that when we let one of these cars go that we have the opportunity to reacquire it again later! Have a great trip and don't let it leave your sight again!!

Mike,

You could not ask for a better road trip. Bringing your baby back home.

Enjoy the miles.

Just texted Mike, they are about a hour away from West Palm in a little Chevy POS rental. I'm sure he and Emerald will be happy to start driving the 16 YO piece of German engineering.

He sent me a photo of the Chevy, really not worth posting here.....

Mike, congrats on the new/old ride. I will do my best to forget about the conversation we had at Tommy 2010... Have a save journey home with the Smurf!
