Willie,

I got so much pleasure getting my fingers dirty poping off all the old classics. I'm trying to decide what was the highlight of the day. Starting the D-7 after we changed the oil and getting to run it around and park it in line. No, maybe getting the diesel fifty going after we broke the starter clutch free and getting it going. No, poping off the diesel 35 after spending time trying to pop off the pony, and priming the fuel system on the main. Nope, seeing the look on Wallace's face when all the iron kept starting around him. Nope, not yet....getting to start a BEST 75....NOPE, getting closer:D Willie, I've got to admit, getting the chance to hang around you all day :eek: and give you #$@% :rolleyes: was the BEST!:D :D :D
