Hey everyone,
Well I have some great news to share. My wife is pregnant with my son!!! She got pregnant when I was home in April on R&R but kept it a secret until today. Our daughter kept bugging her to tell me. OMG I can't believe it!!

Probably gone to heaven by then. If I live that long I will be 68. My wife is 18 years younger than me. I will now have someone to pass the trucks down to and carry on the family name. With my insurance and retirement they will be well taken care of.

Let's hope you take Spock's advise "Live long and prosper"

Congratulations Chief!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My boys turned 12 and 15 this year. It goes by really, really fast...

You've got a few years until you start finding your missing tools scattered around the property, but with any luck it will be because the rug rat is working on his (or her )own junk instead of playing video games and watching the idiocy they put on TV most of the time.

This is my oldest's project lately. He pulled this out of the scrap metal pile and made it run. Notice the 'hood stack'? LOL!
