I missed y'all.

I may have a semi-stable place to call home now. I'm doing "well". The divorce will be finalized in a about 4 weeks... Anyone in CA who wants to give me their $.02 about how to handle the pre-trial meeting with her atty and mine is welcome to speak their mind to/at me, I'd appreciate it actually.

As i drive around here in central Massachusetts and see cars and trucks with huge gaping rot holes in them, i think about my poor montero and wonder just how long it will survive New England. My god the roads suck, I forgot just how much they suck.
Add to that, I went to my buddy's house this afternoon to check on a "thud" that was coming from the front end. It looks like someone tried to take my CC.... So glad that dam thing is big and buried in there.
a few of the skid plate bolts had been removed... Yes I am sure they were removed because when I last changed the oil, I put them on with fresh flat and lock washers.... the saw marks were a dead give away too.

Don't know when I'll get back to CA... I may be down to visit a friend in the "triangle" area of NC for a bit, but Crazy Dave, Thank you for all your help and friendship, I wish we could have done more ruins together... never know when you'll need a belt :-)
To all I met at the dunes a while back, Kris, Carlos, Ray jo Grasscat .. Those few hours hanging out really meant allot to me and I hope we all can dig huge holes in the sand with my kids.
Thanks also for thinking of me when the coastal run made to out past Pozo to Hungry Valley, As it turns out, the Mojave run in April was important to my soon-to-be ex wife becase she was leaving for that weekend with her boyfriend.
Well.
Off and on to greater things.
