Ok gang,
I have business in DC on Friday, Business in Troy, NY on Monday,
the AC will be fixed tomorrow, its dark outside and I'm wearing
sunglasses.

Its 630 to 680 miles (Durham, NC-North Adams, MA, depending on
which computer map that you use) and 13 plus hours, my wife says
I'm crazy (she's staying home), but there were a couple of folks
from Seattle at Moon in Joon in an '84 westy  with 200K+. who said
they were headed that way, and if they can, so can I, so I am on
my way. It looks like I-95 most of the way, if anyone has any good
alternate ideas, please let me know. I really want to be back in
time to go to see budda at grandfather mountain the following
weekend.

Any one inbetween that wants to travel together, let me know.  The
last time I was this adventurous, I dropped a clutch in Black
Mountain, NC at 9:00 pm on a Saturday night on the way to New
Orleans.

Phaedra, I'm sorry that you live on the west coast because I could
follow you if you lived on the East Coast. I remember those times
when to set off on a day trip of 1000 miles was a lark.  The fact
that I was born in the first half of the last century may mean
that senility has set in.

See you all on saturday, there had  better be a hundred buses
there. And a case to burn. and stormtrooper parkrangers. and a
tunnel. The cell phone is charged and the AAA is paid up. That
sure sounds like the 60's, doesn't it.
