Recently, I sold some parts on eBay.  One of them sold to a fellow from 
Brooklyn, New York, who inquired as to whether he could pick it up at my 
New Jersey home today while traveling to his family's home for 
Thanksgiving.  I said certainly.

Well, as it turns out, he is traveling from his home in Brooklyn to his 
family's home near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a distance of over 375 
miles.  And he is doing so in his 1966 Monza convertible.  Which he 
purchased only recently, also on eBay.  He is traveling with his 
girlfriend -- their first road trip together.

Aah, youth.

The weather is cold and wet and miserable today, but they completed the 
first leg of their journey, from Brooklyn to me, right on time and 
without incident.  A few minutes ago I watched as they departed 
westward.  Their route will be I-78 west to I-81 south the to 
Pennsylvania Turnpike west.  Pennsylvanians, if you see a white 1966 
Monza convertible with a black top heading west today, given Kurt and 
JoLynn a wave and encouragement.

Happy Thanksgiving!
