Lol! Great idea sean! We'll have to keep that tradition in the Scout family. It's now a requirement if you have a Scout to use it as your get away vehicle. Just make sure you have a gas can with gas in it, right? ;-) or not because then it makes for a great story. Lol! I'm looking forward to the next work day.

Any thoughts anyone on the next work day date? Aug 8th would work great for me. Not sure if that is too soon.

Lol! So sweet doc....yep. He is a mechanical engineer with actually one full time job and a second part time within the same field. He's a very hard worker and very smart too. I'm the one looking for a full time job. Only part time now. I'll find something soon hopefully though. :)
 
As for hollister, kate, ben and I will be making our way up to tahoe on the 18th. I would be in for a day trip otherwise.
