Morning Rob! No flipping this one. This one will go to Melody, and when we're gone Harley can have it.....

When do you start up fire season? Allen and I have been talking about a spring GTG, and want to make sure you will be able to come.

I got it! What do you guys think about a weekend GTG? So many of us live so far away I think this might bring more of us to the GTG. I damn sure have enough room for people to bring their trailers, campers, or just camp out.

Sounds like a great idea!
Just happens we are thinking of trading off the old class C motorhome, on a nice truck camper for the F-250, I don't like storing the class C away from the property, and at least we have room for a camper on the property here.
Love to see the base.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Happy Easter to all. Enjoy the day for what it means not the BS the marketing world feeds us.

Sweet ride Don. My very first vehicle was a '65 Falcon Ranchero. It was such a fun vehicle to drive. All stock with chrome everywhere, 289, three in the tree. Easy to work/learn on too. Got rear ended by a carload of drunk Mexicans on Halloween night in '88. Bent every panel on the truck except the drivers door and bent the frame.

Every time I see one it makes me nostalgic.

Evening Dave! Had a good day here today. Spent hours inventorying the boxes of parts on the new 66. The guy that stripped it did a good job. Separate marked boxes and bags of all the parts. Haven't found anything missing so far.......

Looked in all the places these normally rust out and found very little rust anwhere. Sweeeeet!
