New guy saying hello

I just thought I'd say hello. I live in Letcher Co. Other than school, been here my whole life. Between myself, dad, and my brother; we own 8 Ford trucks. Crazy I know. If you guys ever come down this way, give me a yell and I'll show you my 49 F1 and my 50 F1 (which is in a million pieces right now).

Hi guy. Computer crashed a few weeks ago and I ain't got another one yet. This is being done on a laptop my wife has laying around. I hate it, but it works. Letcher County. Been there before. Do you know Larry Wright? Or perhaps Breedings Heavy Haulers? I've done work for both of them, as well as a truck for the Letcher Co school district. Axle Surgeons is the name of my business. Welcome to the Kentucky Chapter!

Hey. I know both Larry and the Breedings very well. I live about 10 miles from them give or take down at Blackey. Feel free to give me a yell next time you think you might be coming this way and I'll show you my toys.

I will certainly do that. My brother usually gets the calls down that way since he's about 60 miles closer than me, but I will give you a shout if I know a day ahead of time.

There's a whole lot of beautiful scenery in Ky to see. Many of my friends like the Red River Gorge/Natural Bridge area. While I agree that it it a great place to visit and sight see, there is so much more to the state that people miss. Eastern and Southeastern Ky has a lot to go see as well as a lot o history. U.S. 23 also known as the Country Music Highway is a great drive. Plenty to see especially if you like history like me. Many of the small coal mining towns are interesting to look around.

Right now I have so many irons in the fire I am running into myself doing it all lol. We have to get started on the place down in Sand Gap, make exhaust for my truck, get my trailer together, pull apart my parts truck and the list goes on. That don't include the usual stuff around the house this time of year. I will be lucky to have a free weekend any time soon.

How about a get together in Houston this coming Saturday and hopefully Monday night? If anybody has any tickets and an airline ticket, I'd be glad to take them off your hands.

You know, earlier in the year I kept hearing people say Ky doesn't have a big man. No center. Well, Josh Harrellson really stepped it up, that's for sure!!! I really enjoyed the Ohio State and N.C. games. They've got a real good shot at it.
