I am going to do that too. I was lucky and just got the trash run to the dump before the rain hit. With the warm weather and the rain the lawn is trying to make a comeback.

I have one of those wands, I used it when I had the motorhome.
The flooring is finally down!! I still have to do the edging but it won't happen this weekend. Suppose to go pick up a horse for my daughter today, I was unaware of this till I was told last night. Hope to get back in time to watch the Falcons game.

She is trading one she already has for a different one. They have a younger horse and want to trade for an older milder horse for their 6 year old. Driving an hour to borrow a trailer then back to the house to load up the horse. Then a 3 hr drive to trade then back home. It looks like it will be a long day on the road.

Ahh, I remember those days of having horse's. Like a boat the two happiest days are, well you know the rest of the story. Restoring the truck has been a lot better than the horse days, at least you can step away from the truck for a week or two and start right back where you left off.

Good luck Chief, a lot of driving on what looks to be a lousy day, weather wise.

Oh my what a long day that was. I spent almost 12 hours in the Suburban. There were 2 very important details that were left out.

1: This horse was almost in South Carolina.
2: This horse doesn't like to load in a 2 horse trailer.

We were trying to get this horse in the trailer in the pouring rain. We had to give up and my daughters friend that has a goose neck horse trailer is going to pick the stupid horse up.

I can't complain, I am still alive and my house is intact unlike some in south Georgia.

I prefer my horsepower in cubic inches.

Sounds like you wasted the entire day. Funny how important details get left out. I have a feeling once she gets him and trust to ride him she be trading again. I agree cubic inches over 4 legs.

Like Jowiker say's about how 352s and 360s become 390s when the truck goes on sale. I remember buying a horse that was awesome in the ring when they got into what is called a fast rack. Got it home, and that horse couldn't do anything. Found out later it had been doped. Got my money back on that one.

How does e everyone feel about the NASCAR changes. Sprint is gone now Monster Energy and a screwy points system. Guess the young drivers can drive 500 miles

Hugh, I am so confused. Run what you brung, man with the best engineering can win. I long for the days back in the 70's, and early 80's the last time real men raced. Full speed down pit road under green, race back to the yellow to get a lap back. I still enjoy it, but it has become too technical in my opinion.
