Mary Ann & I are leaving tomorrow morning for a 5 day trip to SLT.Just 
curious if anyone has any recommendations on places to see.
I know Greg Walker is only 30 miles from there MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM ;-)
Pete

Lots of stuff to see and do within a short drive of SLC.  E-mail me
off list if you'd like more info.

By the way, the only living 'tron in Utah resides about 80 miles north
of SLC; about an hour's drive.  At least it's the only 'tron *I* know
of....

Interesting details there, Gene.  And after pursuing #574 for 20 years
(finally got to take it home last Novemeber) here I was thinking I had
the only known 'tron in the state!  Thirty minutes from Salt Lake, I
wonder where Greg Walker calls home?

the non-conductive washer on one of the headblock retention springs.
Taking it apart and putting it back together right fixed it right up.
