That kicks ass. I'll be in Mason City next week, but if no one else locally offers up, I'll find someone in Des Moines to give you a ride. Either my roomate or my parents.

Anyone else? Someone who can personally provide a ride?

Your other post on mud said Cedar Rapids. I would do it if that was the case.

Where at in Iowa are you from?

BTW I think that what you are doing is awsome!

I work downtown, so I would be able to come pick you up! PM your info.

I would but will be right in the middle of a bball practice (I coach two teams)

Can do it at 5:00 if it comes down to that. I'll ping som eof the others in town...

As for the Penske places... they're probably in order farthest to closest from the airport in your list.

I was orignially flying into Cedar Rapids. I found a much cheaper flight into Des Moines.

I'm from Fort Madison Iowa. Born and raised there. I was transfered to CA for my job about 10 years ago.

I will do that.

I hate for you to have to drive all the way across town.

I found the Penske place on Army Post road is not far from the airport. I told them what I'm doing and they said they could come and pick me up.

 

[overton]

All the clothes are boxed per gender, labeled and sized.

The toys are not packaged up.

American Red Cross will get half the load and the Goodwill headquarter in Los Angeles will get the other half. They will ditribute from there.

 

[D'Animal]

Made it too my parents house.

 

[Dingman]

Amen.

 

[Dudleyfj40]

You had some pretty strong winds for that box you were driving around.

Glad to here your road trip is going well.

Did Greg talk you into letting him come along?

When you do come back, make sure you bring that 45 your building. I have got to see that in person.

I plan on driving it to Iowa and doing one of Overton's DIRT rides.
