I am on your side, Miguel. Write down your address and we will send you a
card urging you not to sell it and let your dream voyage come true. Some of
us will want to join you on the "Trip to the Tip". I, for one, would like
to. It would be a great fun ride down the West Coas of the whole America.
Many of us are retired and would have the time and the van and the company.
Let's go!
Zoltan
And send a picture of Fritz to us, please.
