 I waved to my SO out this am as she pulled out of the driveway in our 84
Westy headed from Salt Lake City to Farmington, Maine. Let's keep our
fingers crossed that all goes well. I will be flying to New Hampshire in a
week to join up for our tour & be back in SLC by Memorial Day.

Wave if you see us!

Pax,

Tom-hopefully the wind will be at her back the whole way?
