Bob. You know you were missed. I'm sure we can arrange a g2g whenever you happen to be in the neighborhood.

Good Morning everybody!

I have to put the wrecker behind the '52 as far as the work load goes. I need to get this truck gone so I have some money and some room to work on the wrecker. I should have it wrapped up today if I can get the wipers to wipe. I have a relay, a solenoid and switch to put in. Hopefully everything from there is ok.

Thanks fellers, I would like to get back atleast once this summer and play for a few day's. I'd like to fly in, rent a truck for a few day's and just run around. I've got several friends that have offered to put up with me.... I meant put me up while in town.

Unk Bob

I'm not doing so hot over here - I think old man influenza caught me this year. I've taken advil and tylenol and I still am running a low grade fever.
That is one nasty stretch of road. I did way too much dumb stuff down that road when I was younger and that was just on an atv. I won't even get started on vehicles and tractors! Yes the cops were looking for me on a tractor, oh and a lawnmower once lol

Up at 6 to start watching Dora the explorer. Great start to a day off. I may check out the local WalMart for ammo if a certain toddler feels cooperative today.

I've been fortunate and have not had that much trouble with it up until recently. I caught one deer over by the bridge over the river on 32 and then 2 weeks later I caught a second one between Roby and Success. Not bad for having driven that route for over 5 years.

Jesse and I'll be heading off to the Dr soon...

Yes. All I have now is 18v NiCad. The lithium's are way more compact. Could come in handy under a dash.

Yeah for that road you're doing good to only hit 2 deer in 5 years. Good luck at the doctor and get well soon!

Yes and is that grass or carpet under the truck?

Well the Army surplus guy just left my place, and now he has a mini van full to the roof of my ol Army stuff and I have a few crisp 100's in the pocket.

Larry got you what you were looking for too....PM sent.

So now good afternoon folks.
