called my brother after i left and was down the road about 50mi. and he is in arizona working on a nucluar power plant, but he told me i had went to the wrong place, took a right instead of a left. so maybe next weekend will try again. has anyone had this to happen to them? some times the hunt is harder that the rebuild!
