Thumbs up You guys changed my life

My name's Eric. My friends say I'm somewhat of a renaissance man. I'm 48 and up until 5 years ago I had a small Bobcat and tree-trimming business. I've been doing blacksmithing for quite some time and I have a lot of honeybees, too. I recently took my first ever full-time job because I found something that I love to do and I can make a decent living at it. Really I owe a lot of it to you guys. I am an emergency road repair/rescue mechanic for our local International diesel truck dealership. My wonderful wife(I married up) and my terrific son are both over-joyed for me. He drives the 96 5 speed (happy to have his own professional diesel mechanic in his pocket). Anyway, you guys helped me to realize how much I love to work on diesels and I got hit hard last year with the honeybee problem (lost 85 out of 100 hives) so I walked in, applied and got the job. The bees and the blacksmithing are now great hobbies. We are very active in our church and I have a vibrant ministry to Haiti. Many thanks to all of you!!!!

I feel bad about not mentioning my 11 year old Chocolate Lab who thinks he's a lap dog. He weighs 85 pounds and does NOT like loud noises.

Camping, fishing, and hunting are things I NEED to do, so I WANT to keep my rig running better than is necessary.

This site ROCKS!
