Kimberly:
 
Good luck and enjoy the road.  Car trips are always my favorite mode of transportation over distance.  It was a blast walking into Alembic the other day and finding you camped out in the showroom.  It's always fun to meet in person after first meeting on the site.  
 
Bill, tgo

Be safe and have fun on the road Kimberly. We do a road trip about 3 times a year but its usually on a M/C. I love the road.
 
Bill, that just ain't fair man, you livin' so close to Alembic that you can just pop in at will.

Hi Bill,  
 
And a pleasure it was to meet you also.  It's amazing to me how one can come 'to know' someone via the internet and upon meeting in person feel such an 'automatic camaraderie' for lack of better words at the moment.   Maybe next time through, when I won't be so 'schedule driven', we can plan a get together and do some jamming.  
 
In reference to traveling by car.  It's rather interesting with perspective in looking back over the years.  Back 'in the day' I'd throw my gear in a car, then as time went by a truck, then a van.  Here I am 25-30 years later in a 38ft diesel pusher motorhome enjoying most of the comforts of home and certainly all the basics.  Progress in a positive direction no doubt, though it has it's challenges.  So far I've been dead on the road once and had to troubleshoot and 'fab' a repair to an electrical problem to get going again.  Just this morning I 'refabbed' my repair so now I don't have to hop out of the rig and open the hood to 'jump' a relay and then run back inside to turn the key to start it.  Shutting it down was the reverse, turning the key off and then running outside, opening the hood and then 'unjump' the relay.    Now I can turn the relay off and on from the comfort of being inside.  In rereading I call this progress.  Lol!  Anyway, I'm sure it was humorous to the observer to see me running around like I was.
 
And being as how this Wifi is so darned slow, I'm hijacking this message and amending my previous.  I 'got lucky' and found an RV park with WiFi, thus my ability to post remotely so to speak.  
 
Olie  - Nice to see you.    Maybe we can get together sometime as I won't be too very far away.  Hmmm...maybe time for another Dallas area Alembic gathering?  Hmmm...Maybe on my way back another California Alembic get together...   Hmmmm...  
 
And with that, as 'they' say in the southwest, adious.  
 
Best Regards,
 
Kimberly  

They might say that in southwest France.  Maybe you're thinking of adios?
Have a safe trip and shout if you wander into Florida.

Not sure what it means in France but in espanol.

Hi Guys,
 
 
Sheesh...ummm...I think I need new glasses.  
 
Thanks.  
 
Kimberly  

You and me both.  I was thinking adieu.  oops

Hi Kimberly, if you do get close to the Dallas area pleas let me know. Another DFW gathering would be cool.

Hi Olie,  
 
I'd love to get together with the Dallas guys.  So far though the only gig I see coming up that's 'out of town' is in April and going to be in central Louisiana.  Of course the ways things change here I could be anywhere a week from now.  
 
  How about trying to put one together and I'll work my schedule around it?    I'll be in this part of the country until the end of June (at this point in time).  Enough time to work it?  
 
I'll keep an eye out to see what develops.  
 
Bestest,
 
Kimberly  

so sorry kim!!
 I didn't realize I was stepping on your string.
 please forgive me!

Hi Mark; I've moved your introductory post to a thread of it's own in this Introductions section of the board.
