ORIGINAL: Patrick

as a band leader, do you play just about everything? what is your specialty?

and do your cars travel with you??
Yes, I play all the band instruments, but not strings. My major instrument is the Euphonium, which is a small tuba. My cars stay at the farm in Texas where my brother and I built a 30X40 barn. They are under car covers as well as being in the dry barn. I could bring them to the island, but most of the cars here are rusty since we are located right on the coast, and it's not a very big island to begin with. I have an old beater Honda Civic that I drive to work and back. It is amazing how long these old Honda's last. It is an '81 model with over 200,000 miles on it, and still runs like a sewing machine.

Yeah, it's nothing like jumping into my Mach1, but it gets me to work and back. Doesn't use any oil, and gets super gas mileage. Now, my wife, on the other hand, has a Chevy Blazer. That POS burns oil and gets about 2 MPG. But, it is big and safer for her to drive than the Honda.

Yes, of course she lives with me. She's my wife. She's also my golfing buddy.

Yeah, we get out of school the middle of June, then have off until late August, so we go back to Texas for the summer. We'll be looking for a retirement home this summer, so won't have much time to work on my Mustangs. []

TY, now it's just the pain of having to go into several houses in the general area we want to live, which is the hill country of Texas, which covers several counties. []
