Final count down is on, I fly out Thursday night for Friday Museum delivery. My 83 year old Dad is going with me and making the drive back to texas wih me. The last long road trip the two of us made together was 38 years ago when I was 10 and we drove from San Antonio to Missouri and back in his MG Midget.

That is hilarious. My guess is my Dad will talk the ears off of our guide, they may give him a root beer float to slow him down.
