Gabriel Hi-Jackers may be your answer. For the trailer you might want to
'splore the fold open tent trailers which are both light and have low
wind resistance.

Not Nat King Cole's "Route 66"?

If we don't have hopes -- what's the point?

I, too, have tinnitus. Too many high powered rifles and jet engines as

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Roy's Route 66 Double Cheeseburger
Categories: Beef, Cheese, Sandwiches
     Yield: 1 Serving

     8 oz Ground chuck
     4 sl Processed American cheese
     2 sl (thin) eye watering red
          - onion
     4 sl (thin) tomato
     2    Leaves crisp lettuce; torn
          Relish, ketchup, mustard,
          - mayonnaise
     1    Sesame seed bun; toasted
          - lightly

 At Roy's Amboy, California Caf|-, they served up some
 mighty fine cheeseburgers that kept customers coming
 back time and time again. Roy's Motel and Cafe in Amboy
 were owned by Herman "Buster" Burris, who named the
 place for his father-in-law. Here's one of ol' Roy's
 personal recipes.

 Divide ground beef in two, shape into patties and throw
 it on the grill to desired taste. Just before it's
 ready, slap on the cheese. Dress up the bun with your
 condiments, then layer as follows:

 One patty with cheese, one onion slice, two slices of
 tomato, one leaf of lettuce, then repeat with one patty
 with cheese, one onion slice, two slices of tomato, one
 leaf of lettuce. Now add the top of the bun.
