Hi Gary and Dino and all listers

there was really a LOT of people there, we were sitting in the reserved
area, but was IMPOSSIBLE to find you...;-)))

anyway we had a nice day there, with a lot of fun..

for our MV friends, I've taken a couple of pics of the few MV's there:
there is what they call for a '42 MB - it's FOR SALE !! - (with a
few...variations..) and a CJ3 or something like that (you judge..).

then...

when I was travelling back to SFO, we decided to have a quick stop for
dinner at a restaurant/casino (Boomtown) on the I-80 west.
we took the EXIT 3 to Verdi...and when approx 200-300 meters off of this
exit, taking way to the right, I saw a green jeep (I don'y know what it
was) towing a trailer in a farm on the right side of the street.

I couldn't manage to stop and investigate, but if you're there, it can be
interesting to go there and see...

Well...it's really frustrating browsing around in the States, and find so
many jeeps, TOO FAR and expensive to bring them home !!!! ;-(((

anyone has some suggestions HERE IN ITALY ???!!!

Ciao

maurizio
