Pmom, Pdad, and Andrew rolled in last night. Mostly just chilled, but we had some welding lessons with Andrew while we wait for Matt and Joel to roll in (any minute now):

Matt, Joel, and co-pilot just arrived. Off to China Buffet for dinner!

(we all just pushed the rotting hulk of a Zilla into the garage to free up another parky space).

Shadd, it would be great if you can make it, but do not kill yourself in order to get here. We understand completely.

John and Caddy Matt, we can't wait to see you tomorrow. Stay safe, and have fun.

I happened to be in Corvallis yesterday and saw Pmom and Pdad rolling out of the car wash. I completely forgot that WCBF was this time of year though!

Car looked very nice when you guys pulled up right next to me at a light!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Bob, Vince and Tara are on their way! Just got them on the road at noon. What a blessing to have them here for the night. Besides the intense work they did on the Silver Eagle it wasmore of a pleasure finally meeting someone from this great place!! With any luck the only thing keeping us away next year will be health related!! It was great to talk to you WillWren and I look forward to meeting many more of you very soon! Please know any and all of you are very welcome here if you are ever traveling through!

The car is running perfect for the work that was done with 0 leakage so as Bob put 100% success!! We took pics so make sure someone gets them off of Bob's camera! Enjoy everyone and I will be monitoring from Fresno!! :banana: :banana: :banana:
