How close was I to your place? Not going to Spearfish now. Too much money for the fuel. Lot's of people cancelling according to the hotel. You still going?

Haven't had my round port motor out yet this season. Still waiting for my hood latch to arrive. We had a little shipping snafu.
Darn it, Bob - I wish you had called me, though I'm sure you were on a tight schedule. I sure would have liked to meet you. Maybe next time, right?

Mo City is about 1/2 way between my house and my shop! 10 miles from either.

Did you pick that Durango up for yourself, or for Chrysler? Long way to travel for a Durango - is it something special?

I've also decided to cancel Spearfish. Gave my two rooms to Brewster, and now he's backed out as well. This fuel situation - and the economy in general - just plain SUCKS!
