Packing up the truck, tying up a few last minute loose ends and leaving in the wee hours tomorrow morning for Lunch in Little Ferry, a visit in PA and onward to the great state of Georgia. Got a week's worth of work to do at Jackson County Streetrods, some friends to visit and some maple syrup to deliver. Wrapping up the week at the dedication in Suwanee of the Sign Circus mural that some fool slapped a bunch of paint on.
Been looking forward to this trip for a month and can't hardly wait to hit the road and be somewhere that is actually having spring.
Should be starting the trip back on the 29th...who wants to do lunch?
Rapid

give me a call on your way through K-Town, if you have the time. Maybe Jake and I could do the lunch thang.

Well have fun there Ray as I know you'll do real well for your bankroll. Your work is great, you have good friends, what else can you ask for

Stop by, Brudda Ray... we'll go for some lutefisk, donchaknow. If that don't do it for ya, we'll go chow down somewheres else.
We have a guest room and a coffee pot. Sheets are reasonably clean...

What Faig said !!! Don't go pulling a Meyers on us now. Hell, I'll buy! (I'd try to talk Faig into buying, but then we'd have to eat at the deli in the food city grocery....)
Look us up Rapid!
(oh and don't waste the stop on Jackson, he'd just have to go to bathroom about the time to pay the tab...)

Ray stopped here for lunch and he stepped into a big unloading problem from a tractor trailer. He was a big help and it was lucky for us that he stopped by. The crate was over 900 pounds and we needed all the help we could get. Thanks again Ray.

Hey Rapid, swing by here on the return and have a few lunches.
Posted by Checkers (Member # 63) on :
Hey Bill, I heard that meatball sub you treated him to was delicious! If there was one thing I miss about New Jersey, I would have to be real pizza and subs.
BTW, Ray checked out early this morning and is (hopefully) headed south.
He mentioned a couple of potential stops along the way, but I was sworn to secrecy as to here he may end up next. So, you can't say I didn't warn ya
Havin' fun,
Checkers

Hey Ray... It was great visiting with you at Dusty's. I hope you are able to be at the mural dedication Saturday. Just want you to know that you sure are inspiring. Maybe I'll be wearin' out my striping brushes real soon...
Posted by Ray Rheaume (Member # 3794) on :
Well, this has been an interesting few days to say the least.
Had a great time at Dusty's new place. Was good to see smiling faces...and just what I needed.
I won't be at the dedication Saturday night, Sonny. I had hope to attend, but unfortunately, circumstances that I can only describe as "completely irresponsible" have transpired, and in lieu of the circumstances, I felt it was better to return to New Hampshire immediately and settle things from here.

Awe Dang it, Rapid! I was hoping it would pan out for you to stay around. I really feel bad about what's happened to you this trip. I certainly hope the next trip is more profitable.
Posted by Mike Faig (Member # 6104) on :
Dagumit, Rapid. Shore hope you can arn it out. Better luck next time.
