Reply to "2020 Tour de Smo' - after all"

There is nothing like pulling into a biker restaurant called the Buttered Biscuit in a six door stretch Cadillac Limousine with flags literally flying from it and then disgorging a motley crew of Speedster replica miscreants and watching people's faces.

The Buttered Biscuit alone was worth the trip.

We rolled in to Morton about 30 minutes ago. The car's still on the trailer, but I'm wiped out and tomorrow is another day. We'll deal with it then.

I wish I had counted number of cell-phone pictures taken of the rig in the past week-- I'll bet there were at least 20, just today. When I walked in the door, my personalized "STANSTN" plates and power-chip for the limo were in the stack of mail (several days too late, alas). The limo did great, but the mass air-flow sensor threw another code in the mountains. I'll deal with that tomorrow, as well. I think we averaged about 14 mpg, which ain't bad for a mighty 4.6 hauling around an extra car and a half. The cruise was mostly on 75, except in the mountains.

I loved pretty much every minute of this weekend, and I'd leave tomorrow to do it all again if I had the chance.
