    Well it's been a typical birthday morning getting Happy birthday messages via Text... Messenger... Instagram... Fb... And the HAMB. As I was going through them I realized that this is my first birthday without BobK being top of the list in my Happy Birthday pms!

    Missed seeing him at the usual shows and wandering around the country roads... Phone calls... But most of his smiley emotive Birthday and seasonal greetings!

    God I miss that bugger!!!!

    Bob and I shared the same Birthday and we had a little competition to see who could send a Happy Birthday PM first, Bob usually beat me to the punch.

    One of the last B'Day PM's from Bob, I loved his sense of humor.

    Hey Danny:

    I never had the privilege of meeting Bob K. but I think of him often. I love following along on his and Maggie's trips.

    Well here is a belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
    I'm another that misses Bob's posts and travel threads. He was within 60 miles of my house on his road trip out to the PNW but the timing was off to meet up with him.

    I just picked up this Studebaker sign that used to belong to Bob, it is now one of my prize posessions. That also happens to be a Stude 289 in my Model A parked under the sign.

    Was he the fellow with the early 50's Chev that drove up to Alaska a couple of years back? If he was then I miss those road trips as well. If it is not him well I'm not sure who you all are talking about.

    Doug B. We also sat with him for awhile the same weekend. He was a gentlemen and a true ambassador for our hobby.
