Over the weekend I spotted another very nice Ex in the parking lot of a restaurant we had drinks at. He has a coilover front end, projector retrofit and a ton of other cool mods. I had to park as close as possible!

We should probably have FTE website cards that can be put on a truck like that Russ, maybe a future FTE brother.

I actually found him on the Alaska Excursion club facebook page. I should mention FTE if he's not already a member he should be.

There is more snow then that left, its a nice slow melt this year mid 30s during the day and the sun actually does some melting these days, plus we have dusk around 9pm now it's wonderful!

I parked as far to the passenger side as possible because the GMC was right on the line and I didn't want a door ding haha

Ha, I might have lost my license if I owned this car when I was 19.

I'm definitely interested in knowing more about that headlight conversion.

Nothing on the excursion front, but on the baby front there's a little bit of news. She's out of the isolette, into a regular crib now and is getting moved to a private room instead of shared.


I'm not a big guy, 5'9\" about 180 but I look like a giant next to her.

Great news with the baby! Keep us updated.


I pulled the Oldsmobile out of winter storage last night, even put a few miles on it. Fired up on the first try.

That's where we are now. Honestly the most professional, caring organization I've ever gotten to work around. Everybody from the janitors, to the people working in the cafeteria, all the way to the nurse supervisors and staff Dr.s are some of the most caring, polite, and helpful people I've gotten to deal with. Tell your daughter thank you for what she's done!
