Back from vacation!

Post by Cal_Gary »

Good to be back on line! Didn't see much in the way of M37s, other than one in Idaho Falls, in very rough shape but it had the winch I still need, so I stopped to inquire. Wasted stop-the guy was pushing 80 and told me "no it's NOT for sale as I still use it on a regular basis"! What a laugh: the tires are still as flat as last year, weeds are growing up all around it, all the glass is busted out but he still "...uses it on a regular basis...." Must be dementia....

Sure he uses it on a regular basis! He, being a successful rancher, needs to have something to lean on as he's "outstanding in his field." ;)

Lots of rest and lots of sight-seeing, even though I had to detour back out of Yellowstone because all of the roads from the northeast entrance down to the south entrance were closed-a 122 mile detour I might add, but it was still great!

This expedition, including the 122-mile detour, was undertaken with a M37, right?? ;)

Unfortunately, no. Still need to replace my worn out distributor-the last item holding me up-next month, perhaps....
