I thought my engine on my Green Aerostar Van was going to be fine after cooling for 5 minutes at Rest Stop #2 at the Mill Creek Ranger Station.

Wrong.

4 Miles up Highway 38 from the Ranger Station, my engine was really overheating then it just totally smoked out!! The main serpentine belt broke and who knows what else: the smoke was just all over the place. Gee, I knew this part of the course was hard ... and it really did smoke my engine today!!

Reminded me of the many times where this section smoked by other engine.

Fortunately, Wendy Reynolds was driving behind me in Robert's van heading up and up to Angelus Oaks then to Onyx Summit ... so I grabbed my camera and hitched a ride with her. Wendy brought along her dog, Maggie, who was just a blast to be with as well. A HUGE THANKS to Wendy and Maggie ... it's not easy driving a loaded van up on these curvey roads!! Wendy was in charge of Rest Stop 2 at the Mill Creek Ranger Station and Rest Stop 4 at Onyx Summit.

I didn't have much time to take many photos at the top of the 3rd Pass at Angelus Oaks ... only these 4 photos.

We'd like to really thank Marty Breen who worked Rest Stop 1 in Beaumont and this Rest Stop 3 in Angelus Oaks. Marty just did a great job ... and is already looking forward to Breathless Agony 2002!! Marty flew up to Angelus Oaks in 1999 ... he was the First of the 3 Pass Finishers and a real leader to all of us youngsters as he was 56 years old then!!

We'd also like to really thank Jim Carter who helped Marty at Rest Stop 1 and 3 ... and drove his SUV as a SAG vehicle on the road. Jim is celebrating his 70th Birthday today, May 6, 2001 ... but you wouldn't know it: Jim road all 4 Passes to the top at Onyx Summit in 1999 and did 3 Passes in 2000. Then he came out and really gave us a big hand this year. Thanks, Jim: You're an inspiration to all of us youngsters!!

We'd also like to really thank Diane Frymire who helped Marty at Rest Stop 3 in Angelus Oaks. We appreciate her giving us a hand as well.
