Hi SUsan,
I got home last night (early this morning, actually about
1:30 AM - after almost 30 hours of drive time). I'm sure glad
to be out of the truck for a while.

D*mn cones anyway! I finally remembered how to drive on my
third run (fun run), but that's just too late. Guess I'm a slow
learner.

I was impressed that they could get a course that was that much
fun in a lot that size. If it had been about 30% larger in both
dimensions, it would have been serious fun.

Joe (c) cleaned up in the trophies, taking home a first in class
in the autocross, FTD for the autocross, a trophy in the Participant's
Choice, and a trophy for the model and craft contest. Congrats
Joe. My TR-4 did not do anything in the show. Duncan's splendid
Gloria won big time in the Concours (I'll let him spill the beans).
But almost nothing compares to the ride that I got in Dale Will's
Gloria up to the top of Hoosier Pass. Thanks again, Dale.

Amen to all of that.
I'm glad to be home, but I sure enjoyed seeing all of you.
Cheers,
