One I remember is an old Ford Econoline, turquoise, with a leopard-print interior theme. There was always some carpeting of dubious origin in the decor, too.<BR/><BR/>Barnesm, I will strive not to disappoint!<BR/><BR/>Jadedj, I drove my own wheels, that way I can escape as quickly as possible on Saturday. I've been to this town a number of times since 1980, and the place has really changed over the years. Unfortunately, the current economy might pull the plug on the Greensboro Renaissance -- but I think that now the people have a taste for much more than BBQ and Bluegrass, it won't go totally back to the Dark Ages.<BR/><BR/>Doug - "Never had any fun in either of them." ?? -- I have no idea what you're talking about ;-)intelliwenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01872666573909696493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-78817073767947053722009-02-24T23:12:00.000-05:002009-02-24T23:12:00.000-05:00I've had a couple of big Ford vans, one of them wa...I've had a couple of big Ford vans, one of them was filled with music equipment for about a year.

Well, at least mine was (mushy gears, unresponsive steering...do dah.) Although I admit, I felt very "continental" driving the blasted thing.<BR/><BR/>Then I got my '64 MGB...you know that story...continental ala Bond.<BR/><BR/>Hope that's not how you're getting to Greensboro. On second thought, maybe it's best you DON"T get to Greensboro. Have you ever been there?<BR/><BR/>Sweet dreams.jadedjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569736113526368917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-90997237377442292002009-02-24T16:47:00.000-05:002009-02-24T16:47:00.000-05:00"so readers may have some insomniac posts to look ..."so readers may have some insomniac posts to look forward to.<BR/><BR/><BR/>looking forward to it, can't wait.Michael barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08986102144813296339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243874013166160718.post-33330228698148378932009-02-24T14:07:00.000-05:002009-02-24T14:07:00.000-05:00A boogie van!
