I'm back home and the ride back was very quick and uneventful. The plate didn't budge an inch, but the towels got a little shredded. Had a great time as usual, always a pleasure seeing you guys.

Kasia, Happy Birthday and thanks for the games of undead as well as the little show (insert whistle here) ;eekr; You always suprise me!

Gill, thanks for dragging that plate around the country for me. I'll get your beat up towels and straps back to you when we get together next.

Steve, it was really nice meeting you. Thanks for the tire info, I found them no problem.

Rich, missed you, sucks that you had to work again, hopfully we can get together soon.

I plan on being back up in chicago the weekend of Dec. 17 for some last minute christmas shopping. We should get together for dinner or something while I'm there.
