King James Louis C. is my 3 year old & that pretty much sums up how his day was with all the PWs at his blue house. Aside from the dazzling duo Flatfender Firetrucks (Ken's & Randy's) in full regalia (spectacular sight curb-side & I should have had them power wash my house), the Senator's choice was represented by Joe G's WC12 (looked like it just came out of the Revelle model box, simply Gorgeous) & Henri's M37 that was running like a Fine Swiss Watch (fixed & repaired regularly with his Swiss Army Knife) and looked Ohhhh soooo nice! Maui Dave broke loose from his shipbuilding long enough to bring the big gun, '50 B-2 Hydraulic 2.5T Dump... & put on a show for us, twice (unloading the beer)! Nicest thing ever, King James Louis C. got the royal neighborhood tour in the Dump Truck and was the envy of the neighborhood. Kids were screaming, Mom's were waving, it was unbelievable! His eyes were bigger than saucers! Oh yea, my B-4-PW took 6th place, leaving plenty of room for improvement over the next decade! Many thanks & appreciation for everybody taking the valuable time out of their schedule on Sunday and "hanging" in San Mateo! Everybody brought a lit'l food/drink and the discussions were priceless! I tried to initiate a "strip the combat wheel" contest with the winner being lowest time to remove the old shreaded 9X16 NDT, all remaining lock bolts and ring. Prizes ranged from a complete set of B-4-PW rims to a set of 6 G.I. spark plugs...then Dave showed up with the Bud, and, well, no contest! YEP, we discussed a Spring "camp & trail run get-together" at Hollister Hills near Gilroy, Ca. sometime in late April early May '02, a big 'ole unanimous, let's do it! Thanks again everybody!
