East coast M-n-G
We had a meet-n-greet today in New Jersey. About a month ago two-bit bought a wood stove out here in Jersey and asked if anyone could pick it up for him. I stepped forward and said I'd be happy to help. Since two-bit was here getting the stove, he, FLATBEDFORD, cooltoolguy, and myself, were all able to get together. It was a real good day. It was nice to meet everyone. All the wifes got along very well, too. All in all, it was a great day and I can't wait for us to get together again. Thanks again to FLATBEDFORD for driving in from NY and two-bit for driving in from Wisconsin! Cooltoolguy lives down the road from me so we didn't have to go far.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

re: East coast M-n-G
Hey everyone,
I made it home, Hit some snow in Indiana, traffic was awful in Chicago. Got home in about 16 hours.
I'm really glad we made the trip. It was great to meet everyone.
I couldn't bring my bump , (8-10 mpg, for 1750 miles, not feasable).
But felt right at home anyway.
Thanks again cooltoolguy, longbed71, and FLATBEDFORD for the hospitality, help, and parts. It was really nice to meet your wives, they are such understanding women to put up with the likes of us.
Maybe someday i'll find a load to haul out that way and then i could afford to bring my "bump".
Thanks again everyone.
