    Russ; I'll be leaving the morning of the 13th, and meeting Frank and Effie, if they are coming that way. We'll be coming up I75. Don't know when we will be leaving, but should be early.

    Went out to dinner with my renters this evening. Nice couple. They had a story about a jinxed boat and trailor they bought. He went through some 6 tires, bent wheel, some leaf springs and a bent axle on a weekend after getting too far to turn around. Had his wife and 4 kids and it was in desert area and mountains in California somewhere (Needles?).. Couldn't help but think of you and your trip. Hope it goes extra smooth for you Don. :)
