    Intermediate stop for M109

    I am rested and back in the office so I can post some pictures of the new shop van and the loaded rental car for the trip from Atlanta to Indianapolis. Looks like some minor work and paint is all that it needs.

    Intermediate stop for M109

    RE: M109 Kenny, Any time you are in the area let me know. I am planning to keep the exterior stock military but the rear shop is going to get set up for my son and I to camp in it for scouts. My wife has family out West of you about 20 miles so I may bring it down there for fun.

    New guy from Florida

    Those in the drive-it-out club

    For this trip boring will equate to no "Oh God, oh God we're going to die!" kind of moments. Have a plan to make a quick stop in Loretto, KY on the trip to visit a barrel of bourbon with my name on it. I am taking some of my vacation and getting out of the house for this trip. My wife keeps...

    Been stuck like this?

    Please do not remind me of the mud in Germany. I spent to many days on wash racks cleaning off mud from Grafenwoehr an Hohenfels. It is the only stuff I have met to give good Georgia red clay a run for its money.
