The stars appear to be aligning. For several months I have been planning to check off a list of bucket-items that all, in some way, are dependent on the roadster. About a month before take-off I started hearing the tell-tale squeal of a throw-out bearing crying over lost grease. All I could do was to have the little monster admitted to the Whitby Clinic for Ailing Snakes. Vacation was delayed...first one week, then two weeks. This past Monday I noticed that the apple trees where bearing fruit, and visions of fall and frost appear before my inner eye. Would I have to upgrade my bucket list app to "Summer 2.012"? But a quick call to Whitby calmed me...somewhat. The car is to be ready for pick-up by Friday evening.
After six years of build, rebuild and sundry mishaps perhaps, just maybe my time is drawing nigh...
And add 300miles to my road trip as I will have to drive the car home to load up the bare necessities. I wonder if my trunk lid will have "peaks" when I'm done loading everything I want to carry along...
