It starts me off going somewhat the wrong way taking me through Knoxville. I would think going up through Ashville would be better. But maybe there's not a Supercharger to go north from Ashville yet. The network is still under construction. And the software is still considered "beta".

But, yeah, going that way is close to

But, yeah, going that way is close to 1000 miles!

I can borrow my little brother's coal roller of a VW and a tow rope. We'll have that Tesla there in no time. Collectively I think we'd be a hybrid.

I will have a tree in the show, and I will be there.

There you go Brother.

Maybe I should be Sawgrass' editor!

The whole time here I go thinking Mach5 is a smart dude....
But for some reason I guess he was going to enter one of his cuttings as a tree.

Moron! Lol. For real morons, that was a joke, Mach5 is modest, a welcome trait!

@Nwaite this shit was funny as Hell.
But no one is gonna drive all the way up to you to drive in with you!

That would be stupid!

You are drunk!

Did we skip 2015? Is it already 2016?
WTF?

In the spirit of good competition....
I hope NY(the state) kills a PNW tree....
Just one!

Cuz no matter how much respect I got for Ryan......
I gotta back Bill V.

In seriousness Bill.....

I know this is a great deal of work, time, and spent passionate energies!

I wish you sanity thru it, good weather, both legs, and all the best for this.....

The most important event in United States Bonsai.

The Rock from which all others jump.

The Foundation.

The O.G. cats meow.

The bee's buckling knees, because the nectar of your garden and spirit is so strong!

Sorce and Adair: Gentlemen, thank you for your vote of confidence. I have learned in this life to take absolutely NOTHING for granted
