Acquired Westy 2000mi away... Advice???

Yep, if we were all sitting around the campfire with a cold beverage we'd all be friendly. The sad aspect of a forum is that it can be a cold form of communication sometimes. Don't worry, I don't sense any real animosity here, just valid and varying opinions.

Risk, schmisk. We all risk our lives every time we get outta bed; at least
you did something AWESOME, with the potential for long-term rewards!

Welcome to the club - see you on the road!

For what it is worth I didn't feel any animosity and I hope I didn't come across as being that way. I've been in this forum long enough to respect a lot of these folks for what the have offered to this community and they continue to do do on a daily basis. In this case there is no right or wrong, just different approaches to a situation. Heck, myself I'm not even sure I would approach exactly the same situation in the same way if presented with it multiple times.
