Dave, I bought an E15 from a guy that almost could have MADE that film.  He
lost his license, and the E15
was his wheels into town, summer and winter.  He ended up in a home at age
90.

all this talk of a meet on the far side of the Mississip brings to mind a
quirky little film a few years back called "The Straight Story".  I can 
just

see a caravan of us west coast Etrak-ers making our way cross country in 20
mile hops. 3,000/20 = 150 days.  hmm that'd require only 6mos notice  :^)

for those not familar with the film it documents the true story of 2 long
estranged brothers and how one of them unable to drive a car and diagnosed
with
a terminal illness sets out accross (Iowa?) on his JD lawnmower to patch
things
up with his brother before he dies.  It's available on video, a great 
story,

well acted, and I highly recommend it.  hmmm it's time I watched it 
again...
