It’s coming together
Last month I talked about the weather where I live. Surprise, it’s the same as it was. Ok, not as cold by ten or fifteen degrees, but still snowing three or four days a week. Spring is coming, I know, because I am getting more, just not enough, done in my garage!
I did get a new window made and installed in the ‘50. It was a three-hour learning session to get it out, and a half hour to get it back in. I’m glad I learned something taking it out so the job of putting it all back together did not take near as long.
Word has come to me from Vermont that all the major preparations for Flathead Reunion Six have been completed and registration should start soon. We will be in a touristy area of Vermont (is there an area of Vermont that is not touristy), so we can expect to pay a little more for lodging. That’s the nature of the beast and I suspected it would be that way from the beginning. All and all, I feel we got some really good rates at the host hotel. A big thanks out to Huck and Sally Mundell for taking on the challenge of hosting a Flathead Reunion. They have put a lot of time in to this event and it is paying off. Thanks also to the Woodruffs and the Landvoigts for making road trips to Vermont to lend a hand. Should be a great time, heck, I’m even looking forward to the three day road trip to get there. Anything to be away from home and enjoying the car!
The lubrication feature story in last month’s ETCetera was really neat. And I thought I knew all there was to know about oils and greases, but I learned more when I read Pete’s article. I would hate to guess now many hours he spent researching to get all of that information. I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say “Thanks Pete”.
