I retired from Kentucky about 5 years ago, now living in Texas. Was a Bluegrass Beemers club member on and off. Good bunch! Don’t know if there are ...
I tend to look at matters in as simple terms as possible, and I do think there is a “flip side” to the Airmail situation. This stems from a confession...
