I have returned from LiMBO's West River Westys in  Townsend, VT.  Nice drive
through the mountains, a real test of the Boston  Bob engine which performed
very well.  650 km there and the same back  !  About a 7 ~ 8 hour drive through
the twisted roads of Vermont and New  York.  Left around 1 pm and got in here
at 10:30.  No problems at the  Cornwall border crossing even with all the
parts on board from my  parts picking day, Thursday, at John's Car Corner.  45 ~
50 buses according  to Nevin's count if we can trust him to do that simple
task !  Weather was  hot - hot - hot with a mild wind storm Thursday afternoon
which destroyed  George's & Gerry's awing poles and moved Gerry's pop up gazebo
across the field some 50 feet.  Lots of tubing down the River got the heat
beat and bodies in shape for more beer.  Great pot luck with barbecued ribs
Saturday nite, no one went home hungry that's for sure !  Nevin, no, I did  not
make it to the detox centre and visit with Marry !  Sure wish I had  though as
yesterday here working on Vanagons was not good !  No problems  with the trip
whatsoever except for a couple wrong turns which let me up the  garden path
and back !  And, no Gerry, I did not manage to run off the road  while tuning
my Sirius radio as I did on the way down (display's still to small  or it's too
far away).  That was just a show to keep you interested !   Brian, how's my
fish ?  Fly it well !  Visit the _LiMBO_ (http://www.bcn.net/~limbo/)  site to
get the "Real" story with  pictures, there now or coming soon, Phil - Nevin ??
 Hey, Nevin & Sue,  thanks for a great event !
