Actually, Robin, my "air conditioned" communications truck was an M715 ton and a quarter, about the most indestructible small vehicle ever purchased by the military.

A few minutes after you posted about air conditioned truck I saw this picture and thought I would rattle your can. Just fun en.

The same ol' UPS Gorillas handled that package I see.

I was afraid if I sent it in a pre-used carton it wouldn't hold up so I went to Staples and bought brand new heavy duty corrugated cartons.

Hard to figure out how that could have happened... Anybody hear about a UPS plane crashing??

Hey... What's that snow shovel doing there - you know somethin' we don't know??

When I saw that box on my doorstep i was afraid it was the mission oak clock that i recently bought. As i could not recall anything else that I had coming in. I was relieved to see Dean’s return address.

There are also some gorillas in the airport. Flew to/from Africa recently. They managed to break my Post 4 shooting glasses lenses. Grrr.

I don't fold well these days and so far I can still pay my own way. I will miss Ernie's as it's always a good time but I'll probably be saving thousands of dollars by staying home this time. The Medford shoot has a serious lack of vendors which can be a good thing.

Gary, I hope the field is dry. Last year it was a mudhole and several vehicles got stuck... even 4WD trucks. The only thing that got them out was a tracked vehicle like a Bobcat.

Did you sell your bus? That thing would get stuck on the high spots.
