I'm guessing you guys didn't pack for snow since you'd be in TEXAS! :shock:

We're driving down that way down to Texas in the hot rods in about a month. Hope it warms up!

I know Mac has at least one pair of pants. He bought them for the trip to England. I even have a rare photo of the event but it is at home.

They usually arrive at each destination in the afternoon, that helps them take advantage of the 6 oclock news on arrival. With the weather between them and Alliance, I'm not sure what the schedule is.

Looks to me like Jeremy is wishing he was back in CA instead of de-icing an airplane the hard way.

Hollister never sounded so good.
