yeah i bet its tough coming back to the cold from sunny california.  It sure is nice when a stranger lends a hand, it still shows there are good folks out there.

Were you spectator or an exhibitor??  And what were you doing in KS?? Isn't that a little off course??

when draggin 27 ft of trailer and a leaded car you need a duramax
thats my favorite route on KS54 to the KS turnpike

placed 3rd in Radical custom for my year

rerouted through the mountains on way home rude awakening for a flatlander but saved 3 tanks of fuel

had to go on 10 to deming NM  and around to Tuscon on way out because of snow and ice
was a very convuluted trip on way out spent 3 days holed up in Morariarity NM and then spant 3 days sitting in Palm desert waiting for the day to go in to show
lots of hassel with parking and getting around and moving the trailer on show grounds

Eugene....can we look forward to a blow by blow account of the big trip from your wife?  Her accounts of your trips are always entertaining.
