Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

I will get some pics soon...I think the Sequoia is dead.

Glad you made it home safely...with some nice new stuff brought along.
Great memories of AZ, I bet.
I think the Sequoia is dead.
Hope not.
Don't they always flush late?
