Al is that the one in/near Staunton, Va?

Well I found out I will be at king williams va for a week, and then somewhere around roanoke for about 9 days then around Monterey Mexico.  Then a few weeks off.  My break time sure goes fast. I leave monday afternoon after I go see the doctor.

It takes a lot of time & $$ & a lot of thinking things out to get the engine together to do exactly what you want it to & there is simply no feeling like it when it starts for the first time & works out right  :2thumbs:

Hey Alan,
King William is just outside of Richmond VA. About a 2 hour drive from where my crib be at. Maybe one day during your stay we could meet each other 1/2 way. I'd spring for a steak dinner. Maybe Chris (71challengerSE) would tag along. He's just around the corner from me.  :bigsmile:

Gordon, they are flying me out to Morteray Mexico after roanoke job.  I dont want to actually do anymore flying , and there is some violence going on down there right now.

Maniac, I will be doing very long hrs and will be worn out. I may get some of friday off, but might not be able to travel much after work. 12-14 hr days wears me down pretty fast.  I will see how it goes when I get there. I missed meeting Thedodgeboys in Mo because of scheduling and long hrs :banghead:

I completely understand Al. I think if I did a 14 hour day, the only think I would want to see would be a shower and a cool pillow!! :cooldancing: Be safe and have a good trip. I hope you're able to get the Challenger!! :2thumbs:

When I went down there we drove down from Texas and that was about 8 years ago.  Just think of all of the flying I will be doing this time.  I dont really like it but better than driving some times.
