Waving from So Cal

Hello!
My husband and I have been hunting for the perfect trailer since June. Originally we were looking for something we could tow with the new Bronco. In August, I bit the bullet and bought a Nissan Armada that can tow 8500.

Saturday I rediscovered Escape. Placed our deposit last night on the 21C and our delivery date is September 10. Nearly a full year to plan the perfect combination.

Not especially close Jim. Looks like about
225 miles to the north and west. Hope you have a great day.

I visited and took the tour of the original brewery in Milwaukee once a few years ago where Laverne and Shirley “worked”. It was a Friday afternoon and the Brewery had been redone and was functional as a craft beer brewery. After the tour, we went into the large attached room and had a fish fry dinner and listened to them play the Julida polka. When they showed us the bottling line that was in the opening scene of the TV show, they played the theme song but only for like 14 seconds. Any longer and they would have had to have paid a royalty. Being familiar with BMI/ASCAP rules and royalty rights I was disappointed that they cheaped out on this technicality. Later that night my son and I went to the opening of Midwest Gaming Classic, 300 pinball machines in one room all on free play. Lots of flipper action. It was the year of the 50th anniversary of the Mustang and the new Mustang game had just come on the scene. I was in third place for about 15 minutes.
Another side nobody knew about Iowa Dave till now.

Hi Suzy! My husband hasn't yet seen an Escape up close and personal. Could we see your trailer sometime?

And for the rest of you... why aren't you picking up on the obvious Bill and Ted reference to San Dimas? <smacks forehead> LOL San Dimas Football Rules! *wink*

Our motto - "YOU DON'T STOP HIKING BECAUSE YOU GROW OLD, YOU GROW OLD BECAUSE YOU STOP HIKING." It will be easier for us to do when we full time in our 19 when retirement comes in 2 years - until then, we will take advantage of every spare minute to hit the trail and give thanks for good health and a lot of enthusiasm at 71 years of age!
