I'm taking my DeLorean in to have about two days worth of service done to it. I'd like to stash my car carrier trailer somewhere safe instead of hauling it around for a couple of days.

If anyone is nearby, and has a nice big piece of property that this wouldn't impose upon, I'd love to hear from you.

If you don't mind going about an hour and a half or so across town, MonteHall would have plenty of room for the trailer..

If you want to drive down to Texas City, I'll lock it up behind the fence here at the dealership.

C5, that might actually work out for me. My dad and I are making the trip, and we had planned to use the time while the DeL is in the shop to go over to the Beaumont area to find his infant brother's grave and take some pictures.

I'd like to meet you, too! I'll check with my Dad and see if he wouldn't mind going down there, and going through the beach roads to get to Beaumont. We can take the same route to pick up the trailer from you and head on home to NW FL.

Thanks for the offer! I'll get back to you!

Well, it was named after an oil company that wasn't very big by Texas standards.

It's grown a bit - now they call it ExxonMobil

Ah, that explains it. I'm old enough to remember Humble Oil.


We have towns in California named Cool and Weed.
