Thumbs UpThanks for the post Chip!   I had not see those...  Very good!

Hope you stay dry.  As a kid I'd drive down from Cape Cod to Fort Fisher south of
Wilmington for kicks and a girl...  That was back in the Rock and Roll days of the
early 70s....

Excellent stuff there, Chip! Really nice to see some of the guys that made our passion possible...considering most of them are gone, now.
THANKS! Clap
