Bring the 350 SDL, the color reminds me of something... familiar...

The out of towner wants the SDL as well...

I'm actually hitting the road this Thursday! I'm going to spend Thurs. - Sat. at the lake house with family, stay in Dallas Sunday night, then New Orleans Monday, Destin Tuesday, and Orlando Wednesday through Sunday. Then a marathon drive home, with one stop in Memphis Monday night.

I don't even want to think about the pile on my desk that will be waiting for me when I return.
