It's his fault and my mate Sheila who did a trip on vfrs in 2007

Mine started in the land of guns also

Not on two wheels tho

Went to Philly to see gig who'd wed seen 12 months ago flying in Montreal then driving down to auburn

Small snack

Rural Pennsylvania has a lot of these - no snow cos the weird weather was coming up from S America so warm

He's a long way north I'm a long way west
