We would like to thank you all for attending this run today.   I hope you had as much fun as we had putting it together.   Special thanks go to my husband, Allen, who is deployed in the Middle East and couldn't be with us today.   He put this trip together on his off-time in the desert and e-mailed it to me.   And lastly, thanks to our daughter. Can*, who stepped in to take her dad's place as my co-pilot.   She has spent many hours with me going over this run and checking mileage, watching for problem areas, etc.   I couldn't have done this without her. – Carol
