Yes the Redman is back. The Trip to Iowa was a bust. Nothing went right long story short. Might be the next to the last trip to Iowa that I make. Then in Oklahoma my GPS gave out on me and this was about 20 miles from Toadfrog's. The good part of the trip is that I found the cheap gas in every state from Iowa to Texas never paid more that $3.48 a gallon. Lowest was in Bartelsville, Oklahoma going up at $3.28 a gallon. Most expensive I saw was in Ft. Dodge, Iowa at $3.78

Well despite every thing at least the gas was cheaper than it is around here.
(course any thing over a buck is too much) :)

The power cord is what gave out found that for $2.95 I can get a new one off Amazon. Of course there is a $6.95 shipping. Good part I got more stuff that I need to get from Amazon and will qualify for free shipping. Now for some other answers No shine in Mo. we make better shine in Texas. Yes any gas over $1.85 is way to much and to fill up my boat it cost almost $23 do to the cost of No ethanol gas and 2 cycle oil. Dash in the car is intact I have a out board GPS so that I can move it from the truck to the car. And yes I am going to buy a newer model for the car. The new Garmin's have the very features on that I need for big city driving (Dallas and Huston).And I could have kicked myself for being so close to the Toadfrog and not knowing it. Good part we are going back to his area. Lots to see and less that 5 hours travel time from here. Lot of Antique shops and Amish type shops that have great food and Baked goods,Cheese and Meats.

Thank you all for the good wishes. And YES it is very good to be back home.
