As you probably saw in the OT thread, I've been driving our new-to-us chase car across the US back to Portland. I've got in some visiting of fourm folks along the way. I stopped and had coffee with John (JanieD) and chatted with Janie by phone as she was working. Nice visit and then I had to hit the road and John had to get back to work. Then today I had lunch with "redcow" and Ms. Gloria in NE. Ol' red is getting hard to tease now-a-days as I teased him about having an ol' antique rig and he trades it in for a fresh Winslow. Then I gave him a hard time about going to the bathroom and skate me on the check last time we were together. Today he "stood tall" and picked up the tab and I had a big ol' Nebraska corn fed steak. How can you beat that? Now I need something to tease and torment him with! He can't get off that easy. I'll think of something. It was fun visiting with the group. Tomorrow AM it will be breakfest with my buddies Gary and Pat (G&P traveling) in Cheyenne, WY

More later,
rockin'

Whew, I'm safe. Don't have to listen to all the knowledge SKIA wants to share. Besides I left town without telling anyone where I was going.

We had notice, but Gloria had to work at the store in the morning so we could not run for cover!!!
We tried everything from visiting with customers to emptying the trash to ignore 'rockin'. He would not take a hint and go eat by himself

I hate to say this about SKIA, but he is not smart enough to realize that when he bought lunch, there were 4 of us. This time Donna was not there so I only had to buy for 3. I am still 1 ahead of you SKIA
Wish Donna would have been there but she had to work while 'rockin' was begging

We had fun Tom and wish you could have stayed longer

red
