        “out of the blue” …I get these in the mail From ol “babycakes ” FANTASTIC ! funny how when you least expect that things are lost forever…Amazing stuff surfaces…”the Spirt of The Track” at work ?….He added this note:

        “Dino,I’ll send you the ‘originals’ I got ( they were copies too!) sometime this week.I definately want them back after you process them o.k.? It was either 91-92 (?) I got them from a guy who attended the Dover Reunion at Danbury. Don’t remember who he was, just too many year’s ago.He made ‘copies’ for me and sent them to me by mail that year.So,look forward in a week’s time you’ll get them. I’m sure the ODF members will enjoy seeing them,once you post them.”
        ….Theres MORE…I’ll post when Original arrive.

                                Final leveling before “Patented’ Hi Traction Pavement. Thanks to ‘Babycakes” for the smarts to request copies back then…we may never know who ‘that guy’ he met was.
