Darn i was hoping if the motor was still running i could have bought it from you to fix my other that blew the head on it..
I think the gas to pick up the engine for the weedwacker would be more than a new weed wacker was worth.

Tell the truth now, you just want to see it ran over by Ka'Bluey.

Just came back to see if he'd done it yet...




Hey Marty, ain't there a BBQ place we passed out towards 95 that we wanted to hit for some BBQ some time? Can't remember the name of it though...

Yes we did, but I can't remember the name of it either...lol. I'll have to do some research.

I hope everyone is doing OK. I've been nursing a sick cat for almost a week. He's slowly getting better though.


Be Good!

That does sound like fun!
I don't think I've thrown it away yet, I'll take a peak later.
We were woken up at 1:50 am to the lovely sounds of Tornado Sirens. And stayed up just long enough to see that we were out of the woods. Now we have another round headed towards us again. And I moved back here for this?!
I accepted an offer from my old Fire Chief back in Ozark. With my back issues I can't be active on the trucks again, but I'm back as the Photographer again. Still fun chasing Fire Trucks.
Hope y'all are doing well.

Unk Bob

Thanks Tony, we're just getting used to it again, nature of the beast.
Glad to see you finally got your truck back and on all fours.
