Oh...as for when I plan to head out tomorrow...it'll kinda depend on how quickly we can get the bike figured out, IF it'll work out. It looks like it's gonna be trickier to get it to lay flat than we thought. I'm going to try taking off the pedal - shoulda thought of that before, I know. But it's almost rusted on. We got some Liquid Wrench to try tackling it...hopefully that's all it needs, and hopefully the pedal is the only obstacle in getting it to stay put and level.
Other than that, mostly just have the things I'm using tonight, my instruments, and Tam and Halvah to load into the car.
I've been lurking here without participating but wanted to wish you good luck and God bless on your adventure. Keep track of the weather ahead, and stay over rather than run into bad winter weather. That trip can be a problem this time of the year. I guess that you are inland from today's blizzard!!
