Congratulations, Grandpa John.

Enjoy the little fella as much as you can. They grow up too fast.

Hey, Austin... There really is a Santa Claus. Merry Christmas, young man.

Thanks, folks!  My daughter already said I would be able to take him for a ride when he gets old enough.  Something to look forward to!  ;)

Now we just need to get Britta back up under you and everything would be complete!

I could probably work you a helluva deal  ;)

Steve, John and Britta... Reminds me of a story about two ol' farmers.

One guy had an extra horse and sold it to his neighbor. Year or so later, the first farmer buys back his horse from the second farmer.

This same-horse buying n' selling goes on for quite a few years until the first farmer asks to buy back his old horse and the second farmer says he's sold the horse to a man in the next county.

First farmer is pretty irate, "How could you sell that horse to somebody else? We've both been making money off that horse for years!"

Ah, the travels of Britta... ::)

Congratulations John, and welcome to the club. You can look forward to a lot of good times and a lot of fun. Maybe he and my grandson will meet at some future r65 rally in 50 years



greetings from a snowy but not cold north

What an idea!  Too hard to get the earplugs in though.  You would need some kind of Noise cancelling earmuffs...from Bose!

Congrats John.  Its early days yet for me but I keep hoping.   ::)
