"just" is relative when you drive a Land Rover. That's really like a half day, 2 quarts of oil trip.

You guys need to come south the third week in September for a local steam/tractor show called Field Day of the Past. A local gent has spent a lifetime collecting old steam engines, etc and he invites all who are like minded to exhibit with him. He has an old steam powered saw mill, old traction engines. Just tons of old stuff and all of it works. He believes it important to show kids how things were done in the old days. The best part is the steam powered ice cream churn. Chocolate or vanilla.
