Hello Everybody.  Thanks for all the nice comments.  It was really nice having everyone there.

 

  Well So far the honeymoon is going great.  We have put about 1500kms on the Fiero and have not even left Oregon yet.  We got down here at 3am on Monday, spent the day with family, then took off to the beach and stayed at a Casino Hotel right on the ocean for Tuesday and Wednesday.  We drove all along the coast line and had a blast even went up and saw an old Military Base that was built in the late 1800's.   We got back to Aurora on Wednesday night and then went out with my Dad all day Thursday hitting up the local shops and stores, today being Friday it is our last day in Oregon so we spent a bit with Lisa's Dad and took some time to cruise around my old local haunts when I lived down here.  We are leaving for California in the morning and am going to drive straight through to Nevada.  Not sure if we are going to make the 1600km drive in one day, but we shall see.  We plan on Driving as far as we feel comfortable and then getting a room.  We are going to stay in Vegas until Wednesday and then head to Utah to visit some of Lisa's relatives then leave Utah Thursday and head for Richland Washington to the Fiero Fest and stay there until Saturday when we head back for BC.   I think the total milage is going to be around 6000kms.

So far so good with the car, the temp has never gotten to 105C even when sitting in traffic for an hour at 30C+ outside temps.  The only thing that has got me a bit concerned is the front end seems to wander on the highway a bit at any speeds over 120kph sustaind.  I tried to take it to a Les Schwab to have them give it a quick look but they were booked up.  Oil pressure has remained stable and not giving me any problems.  The only thing I did not fix that I really wish I had fixed before I left BC was the cruise control.  It sure would be nice on the long highway sections.

 

Well I need to get back to packing the car up for the long drive tomorrow.  I have my cell on so I can text back and fourth but at 1.70 per min I don't do much calling.

Here's a couple from the wedding.  Working in the darkroom isn't quite the same as photoshop.   Sorry it's taking so long.

Thank You again for all the nice Pics. As Lisa said it is Crazy hot here.   I posted a quick thread on the General Chat area called Thank You Las Vegas Fiero Shop.   We had a few small issues that they helped fix after hours at the shop last night.

Glad your car's getting fixed up.  It'll probably be in better shape when you get home than when you started on the trip 

Here's just a couple more (much reduced resolution and size and not color corrected).     I'll go through the rest of em when you get back.

Ken those pics are great.  Thank you for posting them.

 

  Its about 3am and Lisa and I just got back from the strip.  We went and saw Blue Man Group in person and it was an awesome show, even got to take pics with them after the show.  One of them even stamped his head into our book from the show.     So far we are loving Vegas, this has definitely without a doubt been the best vacation place we have ever been to.  Well aside from the horrid heat.

We are really loving seeing all the pics, thanks for posting them guys.

 

Lisa and I left Vegas Thursday morning, drove to Provo Utah and stayed here overnight.  We are just on our way out of Provo and heading for Salt Lake City and then on to Idaho and through to Richland Washington for the Fiero Fest.    The car is doing good.  So far I just turned the 4000km mark and looks like it is going to be about 1600kms more, so 5600kms in total.  The car has not used a single drop of oil or water on the trip.  The one thing I did notice is that driving through the desert when its 40+C outside, the firewall gets so hot that your seats actually start to get uncomfortably warm.  I have raised the fuel pressure up a bit to try and keep combustion chamber temps down which should help to keep exhaust temps in the engine bay down, but has really only had a marginal effect.     Side Note, MSD Box's in the trunk with clothes packed tightly around them so there is no air circulation, gets REALLY HOT.  Hot enough to melt a plastic bag. 

See ya all in BC.

Well Lisa and I are back, we got back last night, and even was in time to stop at the club meeting and see a few people.   It will be a few days before I post many pics as I have sort through them.  We have 900 pics and 3hrs of video clips to go through.   I have posted the Vegas Fiero Shop pics in the other thread.  So at least you can see those pics.   The grand total was 5600kms in 12 days.  Most of the driving was done in 4 days as we wanted to get to places and then relax rather then driving short amounts every day.

I kinda figured you guys would be tired of seeing our mug by now so I have not posted the most recent pics we got here.

 

I have started a thread on PFF to let them know we finally got married.  However if people would like I can cross post the pics over here as well.
