Bringing My Baby Home
Hi Gang,
Well,I'm off to Vegas to pickup the first of my two SVXs. I guess it's true what they say "bet you can't buy just one." Anyway I was up at 4:00 to catch a plane at 6:00 to leave from Regina to Calgary, then Calgary to L.A. and then L.A. to Vegas. When I got to the airport, I realized that Ididn't have all the ID I needed. My plane was to leave in 45 min. and I live about 20 min. out of town. I woke up my wife and she blitzed into town with my ID, I met her half way. I made it back to the airport with about 5 min to spare. That will sure wake you up in a hurry! My wife is the best!!!! My goal is to get back home on Mothers Day, this car is really going to be for her. She works hard and really deserves to cruise into town each day in style is this 92. Anyway, I'm sitting in the Calgary airport waiting for a few hours for my connection to L.A. I'm on my Treo cell phone/palm pilot right now. I want to sent pictures back to the forum for posting during my trip but can only do it through conventional email. If anyone can help me out by receiving my messages and posting them I'd appreciate it. Contact me at wildrides@gmail.com if you can help. Also, if any of you SVXers are along the route from Vegas to Salt Lake to Sweetgrass Montanat,let me know, I could use a coffee break (or two, or twenty). RJ

Congrats, fellow Regina-ite. I *must* check out your cars some day. I'll be getting my pearlie up through I-15 Sweetgrass MT crossing too any time now (trying for next weekend). Good luck with the trip.

Congrats on your second svx purchase.
I'm sure your wife will love it. Have a safe trip back home. How far? A red 92? (from your signature.) Anyway, you used your treo to access to network site? What model do you have? 650 or 600? What service provider are you with? Are you happy with the surfing speed? I'm thinking of getting one of those smart pda phones....

On The Road
Well, I made it to Vegas! The car was waiting for me at the valet service. It took about, oh, 30 seconds and I was in love with it. There are a few surprises but nothing major. I'll probably have to pick up a set of tires along the way.
I'm going to put some miles behind me while I'm fresh - I'll write more when I need a break - its a 30 hour drive. And Hi to my wifr Donna and the kids who will be checking in on this log.
