I would be interested in a few gallons myself, you think we could gather enough folks to make shipping a small crate or pallet out this way commercially viable Rob?

I'll arrange for some spare cans if all works out. You can likely pick it up during your border raid of barrels and artillery tractor.

Excellent! And hey...that's top secret! Don't alert the prairie border patrol!

[rob love]

I am the Western Border patrol. I am sure you have applied for the appropriate permits? I have been fooled before.

[jdmcm]

Permits appear to be made of funny plastic paper with faces of all manner of historic figures from the queen on up....I think you will find they are in order!

Sorry Rob I can’t help you with the transport of the paint…but thought I should set the record straight on a couple “cross border posts” …For the record, The historical items were subject to the mandatory cross-border removal 120 day waiting/cooling down period, this was strictly adhered to. The official appeal process that was offered to the aggrieved locals went unchallenged. So as such… All required permits were issued by the authorized (westerly bound material/items) permit officer, on duty in Shilo (permit #7625683).

More photos of officer found here; http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...t=rick+debruyn
You will find the permit officer happily assisting with loading and removal.

I can't believe they were able to photograph Rob! He usually is pretty good at avoiding the camera. He must have been very tired at that moment. Most of the Prairie Command photo's over the years are of Rob's hand covering the shot. The photo of Rob just standing there is more rare than the Field Artillery Tractor body that was found! Well done.
