[Vwdiesel] Thanks and farewell, just for a while

[dieseltdi at verizon.net]

First of all, I wanted to thank every one who chimed in with thoughts on my 82 jetta front suspension.  I replaced the front springs with new ones and then drove the car down the block and back to settle everything into normal position and ended up with the correct wheel gap.  It doesn't look funny any more.  Secondly, I will be sort of off list starting Saturday and going until June 9 as it is time for my annual Summer Geology Field course to the Rocky Mountains.  I really look forward to this trip every year.  I will be checking the list ever so often but not posting.  If anyone is in the area of my trip (I 40 to Flagstaff with stops in Albuquerque and Holbrook, Grand Canyon for 2 days, Cortez, CO for two days, Moab, UT for 3 days, Vernal, Ut for one day, Grand Lake, Co for one night, then in the Denver area for several days at Lake Chatfield State Park, then Ohaver lake near Salida, and then finally back to Texas with a stop in Amarillo for the night) Feel free to drop and email and I can let you know exactly where we are camping and maybe we can meet and greet for a short period of time.  Anyway, I will be on and off until Saturday and then mostly off.  Hayden

“I do not know if the people of the United States would vote for superior men if they ran for office, but there can be no doubt that such men do not run."

“I cannot help fearing that men may reach a point where they look on every new theory as a danger, every innovation as a toilsome trouble, every social advance as a first step toward revolution, and that they may absolutely refuse to move at all.”  Alexis de Tocqueville
