What's up? Did everyone fall asleep?

What's new with me?

My youngest returned home last week. I miss her already, but it is much, much quieter in my home.

I've got my oldest til roughly the end of the month. (He will be joining us at the Lake of the Ozarks on Sunday.)

What's new with you?

 

Alive and well, just busy putting new headers on the 79 F250. Penny loves it when we test drive it with no mufflers. The 6" lift is next and then either the 35" Boggers or the 38Super swampers?

Penny of course still doesn't like wearing her saftey glasses when she is on her creeper under the truck, go figure? They are not to stylish?

We have already put the Eldelbrock intake and Holly 4 bbl. Fixed the brakes, welded the crack in the frame, put on a new fuel tank..... plan on taking it to Seymore SMOOR

I am using ALOT of info from this site, thanks to all!!!!!

 

Damn Richard, you and Penny have been busy. We're still planning on coming most likely sunday. If the vet bill for my dog dosen't get too out of hand.
I have a 7 month old English Bulldog "Winston" that I love. Hell he means more to me than most people do. He came down with Pneumonia, also say's he has an inlarged heart. But he's my buddy.
The 79 has an intake manifold leak. I'm wondering if this is maybe some of my oil pressure dropping problem. Would like to get it fixed before we try to get out.
Texas was fun. Seen my niece graduate from her basic at Lackland AFB. Got to see the Alamo, Riverwalk, Sea World. Plum petered out............

Let's see. Working 8 hours a day in the office (50mi comute each way). Training 2 weinlings and a yearling for the fair next month. Usual daily farm chores and projects. And it's haying season. I've bunkered 500 bales of hay since Sunday.

Nope, nothing going on here.

 

Monday At work I was told I would have Tuesday off. So I stole Grandpas S10 and headed down to the lake house to get some more stuff and fix the door the kids kicked in. on way down I stopped to get some gas card was bank card was rejected, so I the hit atm, $300 dollers in the hole,called the bank in the am,paypal had hit my account for stuff I never ordered. Got most of my tools! sorry Rich if I would have came home 1st I would have got your # to call you to come get the parts. the shop was trashed NEVER LET ANY ONE USE YOU SHOP WHEN YOUR NOT HOME!
IT looks like they drained the oil right in the floor. busted over head lights out, glass every where. I cleaned up tools with buckits they where every where. and honda parts all over. I was so pissed. I did get to see my new girl soon to be girl friend when I was down
