Well it's fall, and we're booked up like a library. I remember having a weekend off once, but just barely.

It's been nice at night. Good walking weather.

The problem I've had with hosting a get together is people stay longer than they used to. If you remember, there was a group leaving just about the time you guys arrived. Now they stay later into the afternoon.

All of the patches are now welded into the truck cab. Now the bumping, filing, and grinding start. The guy doing the body work is a good metal guy, there will be very little filler when he's done.

I keep forgetting to take pictures when I'm at his shop. I always intend to, but we get to flapping our jaws and I leave without them. I'm going to stop buy next week just for a photo shoot. I really need to update the build thread, it's been over ten months!

It's good to know you're making progress Ken!

Talked with Wes last night and he gave me some other possibilities as to what may be causing my vibration issues in my 08. Hopefully I'll get to check that out this weekend and let you all know what I find out. Going to help a friend today change the water pump on his "new-to-him" 7.3.

Wow, the September post count was down. But then I think it is every year. Back to school, school sports, etc., seem to get into the way.

Maybe things will look up in October. Bring on the fall festivals!

Me too. This is prime hiking weather headed our way. Not too hot, not too cold.
