Thanks Hugh,

My "partner in crime" can't go. We were going to trailer our two bikes and split driving - just me now and no bike - tiny truck, brakes good, tyres fair. 21h 37min, 1386mi (by Mapquest) should be there 7AM Tuesday.

Best of luck Oz, you taking the "Hot Rod Lincoln" then?

I'd fly over & do the drive with you, but the wife's away on a course for her work & I've got to play house-husband for a few days.

Keep it shiny side up Bud;

Just as long as you don't have the red light blinkin, you'll be ok.



Apologies to all who aren't on this wavelength, but you have to know this stuff if you want to see the wizard!

Current set of Doc's (told her to go to closest ER Mon.) has taken things more seriously. Good that I am here to advocate for her, though. Yesterdays (Wed.) surgery went well. With the help of a HIPPA release, I now have enough info to be SURE she is getting all appropriate treatment and necessary treatment. I am a little less stressed and I think my dad is less worried too.
On a lighter note, the pause while the doctors try to figure out how someone who looks like me know the difference between a stent and a shunt is priceless.
