Kirby Company Tours...

Guess What...

We're here!!!

Arrived in California this morning! And wow - what a stunning city!! have been to see the Golden Gate Bridge already and are now planning our very quick move in the morning to our proper hotel!! We'll be in Bush Street and on Sunday we're doing a full San Fran tour!! Will be a huge day tomorrow - so will be an early night to bed for these two little ducks!

So we're thinking that we'll also take a drive out to Yosemite perhaps on Monday or Tuesday. We've picked up a Ford Edge as a rental - (interesting!) and have been burning around today - at least we have wheels!!!

I still can't get used to being on the 'wrong side' of the road and sitting in the wrong side of the car!! LOL I wasn't game enough to drive today - so Craig did all the driving - considering he's a Yank and all! LOL

Lunch was a little Rib place across the road from our hotel - and everyone so far has been terribly nice... Can't believe we're all the way from 'Down Under' LOL!!!!

Anyhow - must be off - have pics to upload...

Speak soon folks!!!!

Welcome to our shores, Steve and Craig.

Say, when and where is this rumoured minimeet in Ohio? I'd luv to be in the neighborhood that day, on a vacation mini roadtrip!

Would the organizers please email me about the particulars, please.

Dave

I am about an hour father south on I-71, from where Jeff
is in Galion, Ohio. One right turn when you see the Morse
Rd. exit. I'll be about a mile going west.

Hi Steve and Craig.
How did you come up with the screen name "Streakers"?
Thanks.

Streakers... LOL

Perhaps those sorts of stories are best left for late night drunken conversations... LOL Oh and neither of us drink anymore! LOL

Anyhow - Today we took a trip out to Yosemite.... WOW - The most beautiful place on the planet... Truly a marvel... I got to see snow for the first time, squirrels and a coyote!!! Talk about bonuses!!! I was blown away...

Anyhow - I have a billion photos of our last three days here.... And luckily for my family and friends (tee hee) I don't plan on slowing down with the camera either! LOL

Anyhow - late, tired, cold.... Need to get prepared for tomorrow!!!

PS - Our room has an upright Eureka in it!!! LOL

Cheers
Steve & Craig...

Yippee yi-o ki-a, galloping all the way, here comes Baba-Lewyt courtesy of Quick Draw McWinkler.

What the heck does that mean other than a parsed & mangled reference to a 1960s half hour cartoon TV show? It means that the 1954 hammertone blue Lewyt 55 on a dolly that I won from the NC57 collection is on its way from Georgia to Columbus Ohio, where it will be de-boxed during the Thanksgiving mini meet.

Thanks Rick.

Dave, who still does a fair imitation of Snuffles on occasion.
