You can create a gallery here then post the photos from that gallery. That's what I've in times past to show off photos of my truck or project I'm working on. I'm not a paid supporter, yet.

The easiest job for the pay I've ever had was a 1630-0430 driving job about 5-6 years ago. If it wasn't for the hours I'd still be in that truck. Working overnight wasn't the issue, it was not seeing the family in the afternoon that killed me.

So Rich, does that mean your a mailman now? Or a bell hop?
(Oh the Marine jokes I could tell)

So, in other words, you took an afternoon off to be lazy and you're being lazy? The horror, the horror....

Something like that until the kids got home and then cracked the whip and made them do most of the real work.

Letting them relax a moment and then its downstairs to the basement...

Evening all. My niece was so impressed I "sold" the Dodge so fast, she told me to come and get the 4runner too. I had to go into town and get some more MIG gas. I guess I've been busy lately. I got all the welding and wiring done on the car trailer today too.

I also did a tow for a couple that were broken down up the street from me. They were very grateful I helped them out. They even floated me some money (more than I was expecting) for the favor.

Busy? You busy? You got to be kidding.

Any chance the niece could help get you out of the doghouse with the wife?

My oldest is escorting his girlfriend at Homecoming tomorrow so the wife is out buying him some decent clothes. They're growing up so fast....

Pretty much its a bag boy/flt steward/here load this/shoot that/haul 'm here kinda gig......

I could really care less what ya call me, cause it pays VERY VERY well, and I have never seen a mailman wear body armor, carry a full auto M-4 and a glock for other parts of the job.

Supporting the largest US Embassy in the world does have its perks.......I just haven't found them yet. lol

Yeah Rich. Be safe over there.

I'm gonna do a copper and aluminum scrap run today and return this car trailer to get it out of here.

Good morning everyone. Alan, good luck on getting the recycling run and everything else done today.
I got the Mustang blown apart last night and tonight will epoxy primer the jambs and paint them. Reassemble tomorrown and spray the blamed thing Sunday. I have to quit nitpicking it and just get it in paint. I'm up over 200 hours in the car and my buddy has about 80 hours in it. His future ex-wife(estranged right now) just expects him to do his part for nothing. She doesn't appreciate that he's saved her 4000.00 in labor charges thus far.
