Can't host WF West - moving to Charleston, SC

Some of you'd asked and I thought this might happen, so here's the official notice. Well, it didn't just happen - I applied for the job and got it and while Seattle's been a nice place to visit for us, it's too far from home.

When I interviewed there, I asked where to buy a snow shovel. No one knew, so that seemed like a good place to be.

Sorry so long without posting something, then just this short post.

Have been without a wagon for several months as they're so hard to find here. Can't wait to get one or eight again, and hit all the wagon doings back east.

If anyone knows of a nice L05 (or L03/GU5) white on red 92 OCC somewhere south of Pennsylvania, let me know!

WOOHOO
Great to Hear this wonderful news!
You have been missed sir
Jim Gordon

That's great news!

You can get rid of your slickahs now, too...

Woohoo! Wagonfest South incoming!

Fred,

It will be great to have you back on the east coast. I am about Half way between the Carolina's and Upstate, NY, so a great stop over for you, Kelly and the kids if you travel to see home. You are always welcome.

I can start looking for a clean wagon in PA for you, but Virginia and the Carolina's might be a better plan.

Tim

Not white on Red, but it could prolly keep you going till you find one.

LMK if you want me to check it out for you

wintertime wagonfest??

that'd be interesting coming south with the big 255-50 tires on ,..
ok if the roads are dry i guess,.

looks like you'd better get a big enough place so us northern boys can leave our rides with you for the winter,.

Here is one in TX.....

92 White over blue 42K mile OCC

VIN: 1G3BP8372NW302891

Jim, thanks - I've missed me, too!

How about a spring break WF south? I'll need some time to settle in. Sorry Nick - maybe next winter!

Bill, I'd leave the slickers here, but no one uses umbrellas here - they just get soaked. Weird.

Tim, I thought of stopping on our way back from vacation in NC last week, but ran out of time. I'm moving to (see subject.)

Robert, thanks - ad removed though.

Pat, this is way too nice for you.

Thanks, all. Don't want to get all sentimental but *sniff* I've missed you guys!

hey fred...mike has a nice clean R title 96 in his garage!

charleston ehh? hmm sounds like a great place for a wagon fest!

get Frankie to run over and give them a dozen for this one,.
nice colors,.

Nick

Good to hear your heading back to the east coast. A southern style wagonfest would be great in the spring. I guess it will give us festers something to look forward to. Welcome back to the east coast Fred.

Spring break works too. lol

Welcome back to the east coast!

Hey, Fred, welcome back to the east coast! I've lived out on the West coast myself, and while it's got it's own different cool things, I still missed the 'ol East coast, and came back.

Is having the clearcoat fading off on the bumper and mirrors an exclusive feature of maple red OCCs????? wtf?? I haven't seen one that didn't have that!

Dream color combo right there. I hate being poor.

Fred:

Glad you finally got your preferred posting. Also a good thing that you didn't stay on the left coast long enough to be corrupted and start thinking like a left coaster. This backing out of Wagonfests is starting to become a habit. We need the festers back.

SC is great. With the price of gas, Carol and I have taken to going to Myrtle Beach on our spring holiday. Cuts a day and a half off the trip to Florida. Same great beaches but the water is a little cooler.

Welcome back to within striking distance. Timing is bad though. Have to fly into Portland Oregon during the last week in August. On the return trip it looks as if I am going to have a five hour layover in Seattle. Intended on giving you a call but I guess you won't be there. Oh well, maybe there's a book store in the airport.

Good luck on your move.

Bill

Glad to hear you're headed home, and if there is a Southeast Wagonfest in the winter or spring you can count me in! My busy season at work is from May-Aug, but fall and spring are open for road trips!
