Good evening everyone.

For the first time in nearly two years the Manchester office made mission for both Active and Reserve components! It was a big day, and we now have tomorrow off.

It's finally FRIDAY.
Not that it makes any difference to me.


I sure hope my other radiator hose shows up so I can get them installed along with my shocks on Sunday.

Get with the 21st century and look in your phone.


What do you want in a house, and where do you want to live Aaron?

it was also a nice shakedown run, the truck just hit 60k and I did a complete fluid change oil, tranny, transfer, difs, and coolant. I skipped the power steering and brake fluid but did get new plugs and cleaned the tb and maf and a wash and wax. the truck seemed much smoother rolling down the freeway after all that pampering

Drove my truck around today with the parking brake on.

Funny, I didn't notice it at all.
... except for the smell and heat once I stopped.
