fuel at Torrington WY (about an hour past Rawlins) is 63 cents cheaper than
Rawlins.

Hmmm, .63 a gallon cheaper would probably be somewhere around $20 for
me. Heck, that's another T-shirt I can buy at OSH...I'm in! :-)

That and we have an hour less to fly on Saturday to get to Jay's gig.

Which means one *more* hour to hang out at Jay's gig.

I'm going to make a Friday night reservation in both Rawlins (which I have
already done) and Torrington (which I have NOT done).

Sounds like a plane. I can dig up the number for the Super-8 and (shhh,
don't tell Jay) do the same thing. Perhaps they have the same deal as
the Day's in in Rawlins where they'll hold the room until a certain time
w/o a credit card.

Ok.... now I'm bracing myself for a picture of you in that Hamm's Bear
suit!
Favorite memories of mine are as a kid going to the tavern with my grandpa
and watching the moving Hamm's signs. I think I still have some of the
Hamm's cans that were shaped like barrells.


During 1960s Packer's games:

"Dale to the left; Dowler to the right....Starr steps back from center --
and calls a time out!"

"And now, a word from our sponsors...."

BOOM, bum-bum-bum
BOOM bum-bum-bum
BOOM bum-bum-bum
BOOM bum-bum-bum

"From the Land of Sky Blue Waters....

Hamm's. the beer refreshing..."

And as I understand it Tooele is an unstaffed airport with damned little
other than a gas pump and a portapotty. Anybody got a friend in Tooele
that we can call on Thursday to see if the gas pump is working?


According to Airnav.com KTVY lists $2.90 a gallon for 100LL and has the
following as a contact: Salt Lake City Dept. of Airports 801-575-2401

They said to call he 801-647-5532 He said the pump was working as of
midnight last night and the price is still the same and all major credit
cards are accepted 24 hours per day...

Got here yesterday. I was going to ask what the impetus was for those
particular records? In any case, thank you.

You said you had a fire and lost those, in a thread a month or so back...

Sold our plane last month, I didn't need 'em anymore, least not that
copy...
