As far as I know, I have nothing going on Saturday and could meet with you too a bit. And you and your wife can sign Ka'Bluey's dash.
I'll OM you my cell number. I'm having issues with it, and AT&T.

Seriously though, it sucks that you're leaving us but the very best of luck to you Bob.

Yup, and I have crappie beds that I've been fishing all over the state.Trolling for large, striped Bass at a buddy house in Warsaw Mo, right on the water. Trout in Lake Taneycomo, Large mouth Bass, Small mouth, cat, you name it. If it's freshwater, it's probably there.

Well fellers, I guess I'm gonna take off for the nearest lake and get a line wet for a bit.
Y'all have a nice day.

Should be a good day on the water today with the front moving through. Might not be so good tomorrow. Good luck out there.

Well I finally broke down and peeled the decals off the new truck. I don't duck hunt, so no need for those... a deer hunting stickerz has been ordered though!

What's up everybody!
The folks we're renting this house from have somebody interested in it already. So we'll be doing some cleaning inside this weekend. And should go through the stuff that's in the attic again and see what else we can get rid of. There's quite a bit of Christmas stuff up there, and a stereo rack that's made of metal and glass. Pretty nice looking actually, but we haven't used it since we've been in this house, so maybe we don't need it. Just trying to lighten the load.
Hope y'all have a great weekend.

Going to be doing some maintenance around here on the truck. We ended up not doing the ride to Cary this morning. Wish this damn wind would chill so I could do some burning.

We're taking a break. Been going through stuff in the kitchen, and packing up what we won't need for the next few weeks.
Moving sucks and this will be our 3rd one in less 4.5 years.

It was a nightmare when we moved into our current house. I don't want to ever do it again.

Looks good with the 285's. They don't scrub, but get close to the plastic under the bumper. I'll probably turn the torsion keys up just a touch. It's going to probably go in for a alignment next Saturday.

It does look good, but I am Bias. I like them low. I'm going to flex it out in the yard a bit tomorrow and see if it scrubs.

While I was cleaning up the rest of the brush I checked to see if the tires would scrub... they got close, but never scrubbed. Then I burned off around the pond, just to make sure it didn't go anywhere I got the brush truck over so I was covered since it was a tiny bit breezy.
