Any SHOtimers in Nashville TN, please raise your hand.  (Uh, contact me at
vanoss@centurytel.net, please.)

Kirk Doucette is donating an SHO engine to my SHOwagon project.  (Thank you
Kirk!)  He'll be in Nashville next week and could drop off the engine then.
Because I am a schoolteacher with a M-F schedule, I may not be able to be in
Nashville exactly when Kirk is there for a direct transfer.  So the engine
may need to sit somewhere in Nashville until we can get there to pick it up.

I am hoping there might be a SHOtimer in Nashville who could store the
engine for me.  It might be for a week or two (if I pick it up on a Feb.
weekend round trip), or might be till the end of February (my parents will
be passing through on the way home from Florida).  I'm working on pickup
arrangements now.  If need be, I will dash from La Crosse WI to Nashville to
pick up the engine myself.  It would be easiest if my parents could
transport it home in their minivan.

BTW, does anyone have any suggestions about the easiest way to load and
transport an engine in a minivan?

Any help greatly appreciated.  My recent trip to NJ proved once again how
good it is to be part of this community.  (Thank you again, Bill Murray!)
Thank you for letting me call upon you one more time.
