OMG!

That makes my rockchip on I-15 pale in comparison! Hopefully that can get sorted out when you get here.

So i stopped this morning at a shop to have them installed before heading into work today.

The top floor of the garage is filling up fast - it's going to be a busy place for about the next 8-hours.

Hey, seeing as how you're posting pics, what's the internet service at Palace Station?
Cost? Wireless? Ethernet jacks?

cost is $9.99 for 24hours - both LAN and Wireless available - wireless signal strength has either been "low" or "very low".

Wish I could take part in the Thur. and Fri. events

. But couldn't get the time off work. Guess I'll have to make the most out of Sat. and Sun. Next AMVIV should be a totally different story, at least I hope anyway.

So, i just meet up with a bunch of mini people heading north on the 15 in victorville. They stopped to have breakfast so i joined them. unfortunately, when we all left, every one jumped on the 15 north, where i had to jump on the south bound to go to LA for work.... ooo well, i'll head out there early Friday morning
