[TheForge] now for something completely different

Terry, 



I can't go with you. However, I'll be home in August on Maryland's Eastern Shore if you wanted to stop by. We could get some local seafood. 



Let me know.

Subject: [TheForge] now for something completely different 

hello; 


last thursday i had my ortho checkup and the orthospedic doctor said 
that the person who put me back together is an artist and that it is a 
miracle that i am walking once again. he even gave the go ahead to go 
on my dream 'road trip'. so literally right after leaving hones v.a. 
hospital i went to chicago motoworks and looked at the latest and 
greatest motorscooters and motorcycles. not finding what i was looking 
for there i went to bollingbrook illinois urban motors this past friday 
and found what i was looking for. i have purchased a 2008 piaggio mp3 
500 red and a 2009 piaggio mp3 400 red. i am planning out my road trip. 
current plan is to take historic route 66 from illinois to southern 
california. southern california to the state of washington crossover 
into canada at vancover and across canada stopping off to see friends 
and relatives. once to nova scotia stop in halifax for a week or two 
and proceed down the east coast to florida then back from florida to 
northern illinois. 

not sure how long it will take but i want to do this before i am unable 
to do much of anything. anyone who would like to join the road trip 
along the way is more than welcomed to come along. 

i would love to stop in on members of theforge e-mail list along the way 
and share a cup of coffee and lunch. anyone up for a visit please let me 
know. 

what blacksmithing related sites are worth seeing and stopping for along 
the over 6000 miles of road?
