Another reason to get a red one. Maybe he'll run out before Albuquerque, mine's Silver!

 

should we make a list of blood banks along the way? take care of yourself Wayne!

 

Have a safe trip Wayne & Rich!

 

Moving on to the West! Wayne and family arrived here at 12:00, after the install and some lunch they departed about 1:30pm. His planned next stop/install is Albuquerque. He plans on making by tonight, I hope they make it ok. (As we say in oklahoma "it's a fer piece").

Good luck on the rest of the trip, and thanks Richard and Wayne!

P.S (Added) Wayne has a great helper in Richard! Wayne did most of the under side and Richard worked the top. wayne does one heck of a job with the install. He brings his own wire loom material and wraps the electrical cord that runs on the top part of the engine compartment. It certainly is a expert install.

Sorry about the delay in getting this posted. Here's a couple of Pics from Wayne & Crew's Springfield, Missouri pitstop. They arrived at about 6:30pm, and while the gal's headed for the AC comfort of the house, the guys wanted to hit the EBH first thing:




Wayne and his son Richard did their well choreographed dance and had the EBH installed inside of 20 minutes.




Wayne knocking out the underside work. Having already deposited his quota of hemoglobin in St. Louis, he was careful not to exceed his stately allocation.

The crew had been on the road a bit over 500 miles at this point, so they came in, cleaned up and took a break. We had a BBQ feast of goodies, then the kids enjoyed a movie while Wayne and I commiserated the foibles of the Vista OS.

They headed over to Evan's place about 10:30pm. After spending the night, Sunday's agenda is Oklahoma City, they on to Albuquerque, NM for the night. The Sunday leg is about 829 miles.

Hmm. If he leaves enough DNA in San Diego, can we clone him?

 

Wayne, If you are able to read this thread, and you and the Gang are still coming through Mexico, MO.
We will have a BBQ that evening. Your welcome to stay , only have 1 bedroom to give ya though.
( maybe I can get you to stay and help with the demolition and recontruction of the house. we are in the it's all a mess stage now) LOL

Don't lose too much DNA

Wayne and family rolled into Albuquerque around 9:15 pm. It took Wayne and Richard around 20 minutes to do install #33 (in the dark, Wayne can do it by feel) while the ladies chatted in the house. Wayne did a fantastic job, while not leaving too much blood, although he did leave some skin and a bandaid somewhere in the inner workings of my Prius. They got a belly full of homemade Green Chili Chicken Enchilada Casserole and tortillas. I don't know how early they will leave their hotel tomorrow morning, they left here at 11 pm. Some pics....

You should have hooked up a per mile fund drive for charity.

Wow. Thanks for the link. While the actual recipe makes me gag (I can't take the peppers or the pork) it led me to the Big Green Egg at Primo grills. I refuse to use propane. I think it makes everything taste faintly of gas. I love cooking with coals. This is a fabulous grill. And they have three sizes. I wish I could replace my cheapie right now!

 

Well, I was able to reach Wayne in time to prevent wasting his time, as I unfortunately have to be out of town this Friday. I guess I'll just have to muddle through on my own.
