Martin and Lee McCollum in the Air Explorers. The jeep that Lee's driving was our "emergency rescue vehicle." However , it would only go 45 mph, so people would be passing us out on the highway, even though our lights and siren was blaring.
|

All the Explorers got together on a cold Winters day to paint the rescue truck. We painted it in an abandoned service station and kept the windows closed. We also were drinking beer and smoking cigars, so with the paint, there were a bunch of sick kids.
