Effective December 7, 2020 we are moving. Our new address will be 1118 Jennings Avenue Petoskey, Michigan 49770. Please send me a private email on this Forum and I will email you my new contact information. I am doing this to avoid placing my new personal information "in the clear" on-line to foil those who would besiege me with Spam calls and advertising emails.

Ron,

Next summer, take a drive north on 119 to Cross Village and have lunch or dinner at Legs Inn. Cool place! Great Polish food! Notice the Model T running board, used as the threshold for the front door.

Beautiful area. Hope you have many happy years there!

Hi, Ron!

Welcome to P-Town! I lived downtown for years... Now just north of town in Conway Commons. If you see a '24 RPU with a canvas top.... That's be me. Take care on the move, and enjoy!

Maybe a stretch, but by "we", I am assuming Ron has a wife and that he plans to bring her with him.

At least we hope so!

Ron is one of the few people in the hobby I would call a guru when it comes to the T electrical system. I have taken his comments and recommendations to the bank more than once, and have yet to run afoul of a malfunction.

I'm just glad you're not leaving us...

Hi Ron,

Tried to PM you but something went wrong. You have my contact info so if you don't mind, text me your new information.

Thanks,

David Ruedy

My granddaughter and kids are leaving today, for Michigan. We had planned to visit them this year in Texas, where they have been living until today. I have never been in the state of Michigan, but after COVID Dolores and I will plan to visit them. They will be living somewhere near the lake, north of Detroit. I don't know the name of the town, but Dolores is in contact with her by Facebook, which I don't use. Where, in Michigan is the town where your live? I would like to meet you some day. I have used a part which you made for a starter contact which has worked very well.

Norman - sounds like your granddaughter is moving to a city near either Lake St. Clair or Lake Huron, which are on Michigan's eastern boundary. Ron is located in Petoskey, which is "up north" on Lake Michigan - Michigan's western boundary.

I live two miles from Lake Huron in Michigan's "Thumb." Ron is closer to the little finger

Since you'll be coming to my neck of the woods let me know when you're coming. There are many, many things that would interest a car guy in the area and some very active Model T enthusiasts that will make you welcome.

My wifes family comes from Cross Village and i know it well.

It is going to be cold up there!

Ron,

Glad to hear you are getting settled in your new digs. Thanks for all your help to me and the members of the hobby. A private email will follow shortly.

Belated Thanksgiving greetings,

Dom
