I'm getting excited about this thing...Just can't wait to get it!
My better half has made me promise not to work on it until I finish
the taxes, though. This could take a little while. I still need to
file my returns for '93 and '94! :) Oh well...time to burn the
midnight oil!
A little background on my purchase. I am located in Washington, DC and
the Van is in Orlando, Fla. The big question is how yo get it here.
Last night, Tom Forhan came up with a great idea- Put it on the Amtrak
Auto-train! So I called Amtrak last night, and it will cost $170 for
the Van to take the train, and another $70 for me. Add about $85
airfare for me to get to Orlando...total cost should be just over
$300! Sounds like the way to go!
On another note, my apologoies to anyone trying to mail me. Looks like
I can mail out, but can not recieve. Looks like we patterned our
system just like the one Tom F. is using! :)
So, until my "normal" mail comes back to life, please feel free to
e-mail me at 72172.3371@compuserve.com
Thanks!
