Hey John, glad to hear from you. Dog gone, I figured you'd be in Texas by now! Nice to see you are going at a slow pace, that is always nice. Hey, be careful and don't be a "drive-by rockhound" as my wife calls it. I'm always checking out the roadcuts on the highways... "honey... semi." "Oh, sorry dear." I admit it, I am a danger when I seem dem pretty rocks!

What the heck you doin 70 witha trailer- man them tire are not meant to take it!!!! Slow down or your gonna fry the rest of them tires!!!! oh and check your air pressure when they are cool- trailer tire have a nasty habit of loosing air when they sit for a period! Take care NOMAD-- no more stunts OK!

I'm sure glad you weren't going to fast again, at least you didn't have to buy another tire. So tomorrow will be the big day then, only an hour and a half drive to Kim's, very cool. Let us know when you're there.
