John,
You are doing great. I havent sired for awhile myself. Its ok I cant type either. RA Is rheumatoid arthritis. I have had it for over 50 years now. I take chemo(methotraxate ) shots every week and nsaids along with a bunch of other meds but they dont do much anymore so I am accepting the fact that I just cant do the work anymore. Im going to miss the Vanagon.
Im really not going to like an SUV or mini van but have to get something that the "locals" can work on.

A J
