Hello and a BIG THANK YOU to Vic for telling me about this AWESOME site! This is my first posting and I'm looking forward to meeting new friends here and exchanging stories. I really appreciate the 'congrats' from those of you who I have never met yet. I still can't believe it myself as to what I've stumbled across in the last few weeks....so please don't think that it's raining 81's out here in California! I'll post some pictures as soon as I figure out how to load them.

Don't worry Terry,

My travels will be limited to California because my truck can pass anything except a gas station.

Thanks Eric and Joey,

It's great to be part of this site. When the 'Crown Jewel' first appeared on Craigslist, I sat there in disbelief staring at my monitor in a puddle of drool, thinking that everybody else was already snapping at it like a hobo on a sandwich. I went ahead and sent an email anyway but got no response for the first day, so I sent another......and got a reply!  The lady was in nooo hurry to give out her phone number or address and she said in her email that I would have to wait until 'next weekend' to see it because she was going to be busy. Am I boring you guys with this story or would you want to hear the more of it?
