Mike,
What route are you taking?
Peace, Bob
Posted by mike meyer (Member # 542) on :
Bob
I-80 then 95 up to Connecticut....Where is Peru NY?
Posted by Bob Kaschak (Member # 3146) on :
About 70 miles south of Montreal (2 1/2 north of Albany NY) Right near VT.
(I'm too far away from everyone) ha ha
Safe travels.
Posted by mike meyer (Member # 542) on :
OK....I was thinking about a different route maybe thru Canada...Gas must be higher up there I reckon...Eh?
Posted by Steve Shortreed (Member # 436) on :
Mike. Why not adjust your route and cut North on #69 to Port Huron, Ontario? You'll only be 3 hours from Fergus. Love to see you!
Niagara Falls is only an hour and a half away. Look at the map and you'll see it's really not out of your way. Who knows? If you are prepared to perform mouth to mouth and/or the Hindlick Maneuver, I may even come with you. Love to see the Capt and all our Friends at Mass Mayhem.

I've always wanted to see this "Fergus" place you always talk abooot. Maybe I will...I like that "Only 3 hours" back when Gas was under 2 bucks, I wouldn't think twice...but now... Just get in your Neon station wagon (PT Cruiser)and make an appearance in Mass..You can still get thru the border can't you? You still got your passport from going down under right, so there ya go! See you there!

Steve doesnt like going that far from the Border, people talk about baseball instead of hockey, nobody ends their sentences with "eh", eh? and the weather is too nice to wear his Winter Muster sweatshirt.

Mike Would love to meet ya, if you have the time. Millbury is not far from Milford.
Give me a call, if you would like to meet another old school sign writer and pinstriper
Posted by mike meyer (Member # 542) on :
Len, I'll bring my cowboy hat, and hopefully we can tie up my horse for awhile, sit by the fire and talk old sign stories1
I got yur info, and I'll be calling ya pard'ner!
Posted by captain ken (Member # 742) on :
Hey len, Milbury aint far at all, so we will see ya at Mass Mayhem?
Posted by Cam Bortz (Member # 55) on :
Hey, Len! There's gonna be all sorts of old-time paint slingers at Mass Mayhem, myself included. Or if you really can't make it, c'mon down to my shop - 'bout an hour and a half due south. Meyer 'n me will be painting up a storm next week! We even use pink! (or would that be fuschia?)
Posted by Len Mort (Member # 7030) on :
Cam I wont make it to Milford but will take you up on the offer to visit Rhody land in the future.
I will call before I come, so that you have ample time to warn the local law inforcement. Posted by Jon Butterworth (Member # 227) on :
Take a left on I-80 first intersection .... couple days (WEEKS?) Rod and I will host you the best stop-over yet mate!
Posted by Cam Bortz (Member # 55) on :
Len, have fun in Rhode Island! If you happen to get across the border three miles into Connecticut, you may even find my shop! Posted by Len Mort (Member # 7030) on :
Cam Don't know why I said Rhode Island. But I will make an attempt to vist in the near future, will call first. Posted by mike meyer (Member # 542) on :
what soudnded like a really fun trip is now cancelled... low work orders, higher and higher gas prices force me to stay put. I'll ship my panel to mass mayhem...I know it will be a great meet!
Things have got to get better, I'll weather the storm...again!
Let's paint!
