Rain got in the way to finishing up mowing yesterday but the grass in the front yard needed a good drink. Got some free water to top off the pool too!! I have to replace the primer bulb on the chainsaw then cut down some saplings growing on the fence line between me and the neighbor.

I start my terminal leave tomorrow and I am set to walk the retirement stage on the 16th of August at Ft Benning!!!

Bristol night race is about the only track that sells out, and I saw a lot of empty seats there last year. Nascar has an identity problem.

I started watching the race holding little man, we both fell asleep in the recliner so I missed about 1/2 of the race. It was wreck fest at the end.

It's an open ceremony as long as you can get on post, I will shoot you a time if you are interested.

Well spend the weekend at the girls house. Fixed the issue with my dodge, loaded up the other truck and hit the road.

Ranger went smooth, made roughly $550 for about 5 hours of work. It seems like I had more time into it, but family was watching and talking and in awe at some one tearing a car that far down and rebuilding it.
