Paint
Gregory: Hopefully we can travel to CA next summer. Sounds like I'll need a
class A license pulling a trailer. 7000 pound flat trailer with auto. The
grandkids go back to school next week, that will limit our travel area. Leaving
this afternoon for the IHBA boat drags in Gadsden, Alabama. My friend Don
Ermshar, Riverside, CA is currently second in points, Blown Alchohol Flat
Bottom doing 178MPH in the 1/4, on water. He's now 65 and has a screw loose.
Also have friends in Hemet, Temecula and Aguanga.

Leroy, If you get back to California look me up. Romoland is south
of March Air Field. A scratch here or there adds character. Wonder
if a BB Bird decal would do the trick.
