I made the mistake and let my trailer out of the yard again right after the last race. Needless to say I haven't seen it back since and the guys truck is still setting on it. He made the comment the other day he isn't going again until the next Jump and run creek race, however so am I. Pretty sure he thinks that if he keeps my trailer I'll use his and he can use mine again since my truck is just a tad narrower, and my trailer is wider. However jokes on him because that isn't going to happen.

Oh if this was the car hauler, I'd be really pissed, but since it's just the old rusty utility trailer, I'm not to upset. I do have a spare harness, perhaps it'll just be easier to throw that on than find the short...

Yea, I mean I'm not pissed that he still has it, I just know he is going to try to pull the "my truck is wider can I just use your trailer" line.... that ain't happening. That's the reason I have a trailer that is a 101" wide.

I broke the chainsaw and the weedeater with the blade on it out and did some cleaning up. Dropped a few litte trees also and got them cut up too.
My new backrest for the bike came in as well so I got that bolted on.

Coming back from Reaford my phone went off, and it was my son Tim. He was on his way home from work and a lady pulled out in font of him and another car, then Tim went into a 3rd car.
Only thing that matters is my son is ok, not a scratch on him, thank you Jesus.
His car is totaled out, and he loved that car. He bought it with his own money, fixed it with his own money, and a little help from the ol'man when he needed it.
It was the first drivers fault, for all three vehicles and they do have insurance, so we go through this again.....
I got WAY better time after that phone call. Even though I new he was alright, I kicked that Coyote in the butt.
Did you know they cut out at 97 mph
When he called I was just over an hour away. I had him in my arms in about 45 minutes.
Hope everybody's home safe.

Dang Bob! You had an eventful ride home! Not the events one would want however. Glad to hear your son is all good. Thanks again for coming down, really appreciate your time and effort helping out a complete stranger, it says a lot about your character. Can't wait to get together again some time.

Thanks fellers, he's fine, but says his back is a little sore now. Gonna keep an eye on him and if he needs to see a doctor, we'll make sure it happens.
Matt it was nice to meet you yesterday, and see, and get to here your baby run.
