Ramblings of a MilkCrate

Never owned a Triumph. Had an unreliable 1962 Alfa Romeo Spyder that broke down when I was across state from home. Traded the car for a bag of something illlegal, and hitchhiked home the next day. It was the '70s. :cool:

Back in the 80s I almost got my hands on a mint Austin Healey, but it was not meant to be.

Great Tim! Hope you’re doing well.

How’s the missus these days?

Thanks Chris!

The missus is gimpy at the moment. She has a pinched nerve in the neck/shoulder area. Currently seeing a bone cracker for adjustments. Her normal Doc suggested additional xrays and possibly a steroid injection. So looking at options at the moment.

Oh … the things I leave out of my deets 🤫 Thanks for asking about her!

We also had a good video call last night with our old exchange student from Japan. My gosh, Kenji stayed with us when he was 16. Came back to the states and stayed a school year of college with us too. He will be 29 in July and I am feeling old now. He’s grown up to be a good man … really proud to know him.
