Good Morning Reo-fam! I'm recovering from way too much food and too many frosty adult beverages! Looks like steak and eggs for breakfast. Then off to run some errands and pay rents. Wishing everyone the same weather I have here. Around 60 today and sunny. Just beautiful out! Everyone be safe if youre oot and aboot today. Later Ed

"A ship in the harbor is safe, but that's not why ships are built"

It is this quote, combined with the dumptruck of cash that someone just backed up to my door, that has prompted me to sell my Ebony/Quilted Maple VVW. As great a mod as it was, it just sat mostly unused on my shelf, looking pretty, waiting for its monthly trip out of the house to go to vape meets. It was so pretty I just couldn't bring myself to make it a daily driver for fear of that first ding, or scratch, or drop.

Today after work, Turley goes to Mckinney TX to a home where it will not only be appreciated, but used regularly. I'm both saddened and happy about the whole thing. On the upside, I now have a VV hole in my REO roster, so let's see what Rob can come up with to fill it.

I really do fight becoming a REO collector. I want to buy every one I see, but I just don't have the money to support such behavior, and more importantly, I really like the 'maintenance' mode of vaping where it stops being a hobby and just fades into the background of your life like smoking did. Having a showpiece like the VVW made my position as a non-collector tenuous. It was the right time to let it go.

Mckinney, TX....a new REOnaut to hound about Roll Call, or already in the family?

This will be a new REOnaut, and I sent him this way already. Matter of fact, Turley is his first bottom feeder ever. I tried to talk him into picking up a new or used metal REO to see if he liked BFs before throwing collectible cash at one, but he was not to be denied.

April, Dear April

April, dear April, I beg you come soon –
And bring your sweet primroses too.
Let them join in with the daffodils’ play,
As skies offer sunshine anew.

April, dear April, my blessed spring child,
Ornate in your yellow and white,
Teasing the birds into trilling their songs
And dancing to music of flight.

April, dear April, come enter my dreams
And rid me from cold winter chills.
Banish the rain and those blustery winds
And warm up our countryside hills.

April, dear April, I know you can’t stay -
You have to move on ‘till next year.
And though I shall cherish the glory of summer,
You’ll always be my month most dear.

--Mark Raymond Slaughter

Happy April! :D
