     I'm so proud of my car!  Made it from San Jose to Middleton and back with no problems.  I was worried about the fuel pump after the Sunday night dinner, but was told at the tech session that it's some valve near the fuel pump that is malfunctioning and not to worry about it.  It was making a terrible growling noise associated with the regular fuel pump noise (vapors bubbling back into the tank?).  Haven't heard it since returning, though (only heard it while there).  It was nice to meet a bunch of people and ogle their SHOs.  I finally got to see that stuff called "rust" that everyone's talking about;-).
     I had a thought about next year's convention here in CA:  Maybe some of the people with limited time can get together with people who have more time than money and have them drive their SHOs from there to here, and back, instead of having them shipped.  
     Oh, I saw some happy cows off the side of I-80, right near Vallejo!
