And the Good News is......

Traveled over to Dave's Coach & Truck today and the first great surprise was that I had the opportunity not only to meet Uncle Ned, and his dad, but to go to lunch with them.  We had a party!  Great guys...both!

And the rest of the story I that the "Road Princess" MIGHT be finished by tomorrow evening!  For sure that put a hitch in my gitalong!

Now, if I can only get Sarge to lift one cheek I might be able to slide the checkbook out from under her and pick it up either on Saturday or Monday.  Since Dave doesn't normally work on Saturday I really wouldn't want to put him out on a day off...y'know having to get behind the wheel of my baby and show me how all the things he did will make her much more of a Princess than she was.  I know, even though he's a solid even tempered guy, he won't have the touch and the soft loving hands that she's used to.

But I sure do want to hear those Jakes snort at about 2000 RPM's when he takes his foot off the pedal!

Everything he's done has been done with a great deal of craftsmanship so I know this guy loves buses.  And no, I'm not on his payroll.

Final report when I get down off Black Mountain, Balsam and Cowee Mountain.

Sounds great Bob!
After all your problems with the old girl, It'll be good to hear her purr.

Oh, and the bus should be much better too!

(Sorry Jackie, Cat will chastize me severely when she gets home!)

Dallas that last reply reminded me of a rib commercial from some place I know I've heard it on the radio somewhere! But right now it made me hungry so I'll try'n remember where I heard it and let ya know when I get back from Applebee's and some baby back ribs!

Oh yeah Bob glad to hear ya might be get'n yer Baby back about Wednsday. (Tuesday is the 4th of July & also the birthday of this great nation even if it controled from such a lame gubberment!) Opps didn't mean to put a damper on yer parade, ya might wanna go over during the day and wait fer it and then camp out inhis lot and come home Saturday morn'n! Jest a thought! I  jest found out it was a holiday week-end about 5 PM tonight! BK
