Tonight could be a scary night.
1. The idiots that are protesting
2. It is a super full moon. The moon will not be this close to earth again until 2034. Normal full moon crazy Ness plus possible increase in Pagan activity.

Just look at my weather forcast and it suppose to be cloudy tonight, maybe get to see the moon

I have not gotten around to working on the truck yet. I have been catching up on yard work.

I need to get back to the yard work myself, just can't get excited about it with the reassembling of the truck. Got the hood, back glass, door glass, seals, and mechanisms back together. Have to order a new windshield gasket from DC, the one from NPD is too big. Will get some pics in a couple of weekends when I can get back to the shop.
The moon is out, and has a nice red color to it.

I had to back up on the truck. When I was parking the trailer I brushed a small tree and it popped the front of the bed panel that I replaced loose. Got a piece of 16 ga metal and some # 8 screws and nuts. I countersunk the holes so screws heads are flush. Got the plate in and started body filler. Hope to get it done this week still got to put running boards back on. Body molding will be after Christmas

Moon already white down here

No smoke at the house but at work it was pretty thick. Taking Thursday off so I can go get my retired ID card and a short week next week because of Thanksgiving.

Last big thing is I need to do is winterize the boat.

I like the new pics on your signatures.

What does you wife think about it?

Got the official notice from USAA on the Jeep today. THAT 8 PT buck killed it just before he died. After they paid it off we are getting 3400. Actual damage was over 10 k

She wasn't to thrilled about it at first but it doesn't bother her now.

I worry about hitting a deer on the way to work. There is a 5 mile stretch that always has some type of animal on or near the road. The rut is starting up so it's going to get even worse. Glad that no one was hurt.

Just about got the repair done where I brushed that small tree last week. Got the cab visor on today



I am going to shoot silver tommorow. Troubleshoot why both batteries were dead today. Hooked up the jumper cables to the Jeep for a few minutes. Disconnected cables and voltage was at 11.7. Going to let them trickle charge overnight

For what time that I have known Chief, I don't think he will ever completely retire. As for the deer, they seem to be running 24 hours a day. Saw a couple this afternoon in Hall Co.

Hugh, glad to see you getting along with the truck, at least it warms up enough by noon to paint. I guess you're far enough south to miss the smoke.

Also, I forgot to officially Thank both of you for your service on Friday. I'm grateful every day for all of our service men, and women for the sacrifices that they make so and old man like me can feel safe. Now Trump needs to rebuild the military like he said. Thanks Guys.

I have been downloading my military records and as much stuff as I can since I get my retired ID card tomorrow. After that access will be very hard.

I wish all these idiots that did not even vote would crawl back in their little world and leave the rest of us alone. The election is over they just need to accept that fact

Thanks Bob!!
I loved it and I don't really miss it as much as I thought I would. I miss a few good friends that I dealt with but I am very happy being a civilian.
