I tried to unblock all the texting "perps" today --- driving from Vegas to home.... But NO.... 50 texts later I locked em all out again.


There needs to be a phone etiquette school...



Glad you guys made it safe and sound and there appears to be no mishaps or expensive breakdowns! So the trip was a complete success. AWESOME!

Did I mention anything about breaking down?

FWIW - Based on my highly speculative finite calculations 4070 lbs. of fuel not counting spillage.

Number of texts in the train............easier to count stars.

Great job fella's one hell of a trip...........next time we should lease a bus.

WAS NOT!

Short Bus would not have the NASCAR parts hauling capacity required.

Sad to see this one end. Definitely a great time. Weld is policing the phones now so it appears the text train has come to a halt.............for now

Great job Fellas!!

Hey, GW is just tryin to enjoy his retirement.

It could be worse, he might have done those 'Help, I've fallen and can't get up!' commercials like other retirees.

Several of us actually use our phones for stuff other than that particular WEEKS long texting marathon.

Thanks for all the following along and the encouragement and offers of support. Wish we had more time to see and meet up with more members. Probably good we didn't meet up with everyone. That might take a year and Rob and I'd be divorced.

I have a migraine today (felt great the whole trip) and so I texted Rob that I am having withdrawals from oil, fuel, diner food and 80's rock music.

I'll have some final fuel economy numbers here when I catch my breath. Not sure I wanna do the math.

And Weld, we get it... You're important... you have things to do. Good for you. Now go build your big house that no one cares about.

Until next time....
