Wow, I'm obviously rather poor at this blogging thing. My excuses are lame (we've been busy, connections are hard to find, etc.), and we have left you hanging and possibly wondering ifnwe were broken down somewhere in the mountains or got abducted by aliens, so many apologies for those of you that have been wondering what's been going on out here.

So where were we last? I believe that we were on the way down to Colorado Springs. It was another very nice summer day, and we took off down highway 83 to visit Kent and crash there. We showed up at his place and he let us park Ruby Jane in his garage, also so he could take a quick look at her. He gave his approval, but we agreed that we would take a look at her in the morning and see if there was something we could do about the timing and how hot she was getting in traffic.






Brandon had arranged for some old friends from back in our days of living in the Springs to meet us in Oscars downtown. While not everyone was able to make it, we still had a great night catching up with Kim, Heidi, Shelly, Brian, Philip, Rod and others. Saturday morning Brian came over and we (actually it was much more Kent & Brian) took off the wheels, went out and got another fan as well as a top radiator hose. They finished up all the work and then Scott & Ron came over to appreciate Ruby Jane and her return from the grave in Nebraska. So overall, as you can tell, it has been quite a reunion tour for Ruby Jane (as well as Brandon and myself!)....

We left late in the afternoon to follow Ron out to Salida, where our travels continue....
