Saying Goodbye
« on: February 14, 2007, 09:04:03 PM »
So this evening my two children and I watched out the front window as Waldo left on a trailer to a new home.  My three year old daughter cried her little eyes out and my 5 year old son was close but being strong.  It's good to know that he went to a home where he'll be loved and brought back to former glory but will the Waldo in him live on?  Who knows but I eagerly await photos of the work being done on him.  Take care of him John, he'll be missed.

Sure, let's go get it right now.  You supply the trailer and tow vehicle.  It'll be coming home on Sunday.  It was the soonest Eddy and I were both available.  I don't mind it being under the weather right now.  It washed off all the dust and crud that was collecting on it while in the shop and truthfully it's safer out in the compound than inside where a dozen + kids walked around it continuously.
