Default The journey begins. Picking up the Rivi Blue Cab today

Well it's 4:30 AM and I am getting ready to head to the airport. The day has finally arrived where I fly out to pick up the Rivi Blue Cab. I sold it last Spring and now have the opportunity to buy it back. e3photo and I are flying down to FL and driving it back here to TN. A 2 day trip from Southern Florida, and I hope to have a little top down time. It's good to get the old girl back, I never should have sold it in the first place. I put my heart and soul into this one, not to mention a load of $$$$. It has come back for a reason. Stay tuned the cameras are charged up and pics will be forthcoming. Awesome!!!!!!!!

I hope Emerald is not the only one going on this trip. Little Fart had better have found his way on the plane. You need to keep an eye on him. I don't think the flight attendants take too kindly to unwanted signs of affection. I'd hate to see the TSA "escort" him off the plane when you land, not to mention his new "roommate" in the holding cell.

Be careful on the drive back and take lots of pictures.

Why did you let your baby go ?
And how did it find its way back to you ?
Man - this could be a good story for a movie or documentary.

Enjoy the reunion mate.

Regards
Ken

+993!

Wonder how many beers LF is going to be able to down on the flight? I seriously doubt he'll be in any condition to drive on the way back. Hell, he can't even stay on a horse after he's been drinking!

Well we are sitting in Tampa. Looks like the connecting flight to West Palm Beach, FL may be cancelled. We can rent a car one way for a 3 hour drive. The plane is so delayed that we have a 3 hour layover anyway. Having a quick bite and probably heading to car rental. Ain't traveling grand? Lunch just arrived so until next post, see ya!!!!!
