I wave at them when I pass them on the road. It's nice having someone sort of pre-positioned to help if needed. Now if we could have a *MOPC cell # like we have for *cervezatogo, *moresun and *whereamI we'd be all set.

We all see them regularly..... a really addition to the 'system' here on #5

lights flashing, I have seen them doing a tire, etc

I gather the trucks were a gift of some sort-
who knows the story?
