The Cooler May 8 - 14
Afternoon y'all,
Another fine day in So. Germany (read: it didn't rain today). Found a little beater BMW for sale for $200 and it only needs a couple minor things to be ready to roll again. I sure do miss B.E.R.T. but I am sure glad I don't have to look for a parking spot for it.
I will have to find a picture of one of these little cars they drive around here called a SMART car. No kidding, the thing will fit in a long bed (with room to spare).
I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me when I saw one of these large go-carts whizzing down the Autobahn at 85-90 mph. Hit a mosquito and you have just totalled your car
.
Enjoy the day ... it's time for a fresh beer (probably brewed yesterday
).

Pistolwhipt almost had it right, it is warmer today in S Germany, about 52 F, light rain showers where we are at. Not bad. Leaving Wed 5/11 at 0700 from Nuremberg.
Got a lot to do when we get back to Sedro Woolley, WA. Sign papers on selling house, moving stuff.
Weekend, going to babysit grandaughter in Bend OR. Hope to have all the gages working, and Quadzilla chip in. Be a gud test run.

The less $$$ I have to spend on "Her" vacation, the more $$$$ I can spend on stuff for the truck.

Well, it sounds like FiverBob is enjoying his trip up north. I'm surprised he wasn't hemmed up for all the warm weather comments he made last winter (hehehe ... stir the pot Pistol, Stir the pot !!) I made it to Alaska one and it was very pretty !!!
Hey, any of you military types ever use the military hops to Europe ? I am trying to interpret the Space-A book that we picked up a while ago and it reads like stereo instructions. I need to get the how-2 on flying my wife and 4 kids from Missouri to Stuttgart (preferably NOT on a cargo plane). I think the Patriot Express is no longer running ?!
Enjoy the day,
