[Ford-ferguson] PA/NJ Hauling help needed

[Mike Sloane]

Thanks for the offer, Ed. It looks likes Randy Kuhn will be meeting us 
at the dealer's lot and hauling back to NJ on Wednesday morning. I will 
be riding along with Paul to act as Supervisor of Loading, food tester, 
communications director, social activities officer, and general pain in 
the butt. :-) It will also be nice to meet Randy after many years of 
exchanging ATIS messages.

But if there should be any unforeseen change in plans, we will 
definitely keep your generous offer in mind. (And I will keep it for 
future reference, in case I buy another tractor that is too heavy/big 
for my trailer!)
