S oAFRET,  now that you are in NHRA Div.6 any chance that we will be seeing your white Mustang Stocker at Missions LODRS race next spring?  I like going to So. Cal now and then on holidays, but with all the yuppies, tree huggers, and political correctness, I doubt that I could live there for long. Hell, between the gridlock traffic, sky high taxes, fees, and fuel prices, the anti car, tree hugger politicans, hipsters and outragous house prices, Greater Vancouver BC is getting to be a better place to be FROM, rather than LIVE in. A more rural retirement lifestyle sure looks tempting!

Hi Rory,

Yeah, CA is not the place to be.  You might see the car if Thor takes it there.  Thor is thinking about driving the car. I pretty much have to stay around the house since I have to take care of my 95 y/o mom.  I can't leave her for more than an hour or two so I can't even make it to the local track.  My brother should hopefully be able to go to the track.

I'm a Cali boy and I know what he means.
There are beautiful places here and I can work in my driveway most of the year.
However it's expensive, crowded and let's just say the government leaves a bit to be desired.

Couldn't be cooler Afret, I am jealous.

Although I likely have another 5-ish years until USAF retirement, we are looking at getting to somewhere a bit more secluded and with more wildlife than our "buy to sell" homes AF guys normally live in.  Unfortunately, I am not sure I can get my wife and daughter to leave Omaha

Who would guess that a New England car guy would end up in the salty, snowy, hail and sometimes tornado threatened midwest LOL

Beautiful place, hard to think it was anything less than an awesome choice

Nice looking joint Earl. Nice move too. About the only thing I'd miss in SoCal is El Pollo Loco.

Be careful if you have dogs that cruise around. My aunt in Jackson Hole lost her yellow Lab to a very protective momma moose.
