Dante







And Dante's wifey, Destry





They were shipped overnight from Agoura Hills, California, to Berkley, California (to Diana/BCBlondie).

Well, on our way back, my very recently fixed car (fixed TWO days before we left!!), died. It completely died. We had to tow it back from just outside Seattle back to Vancouver... for $450 dollars.
