Lots of off-roading, camping, and drinking (preferably all three at once). Custom fab work, poker, and PS2.

PS-78f250lj- you wanna sell one of those electras? Do you run demolition derbys?[/QUOTE]


LOL Scott.....No, they are cars that have been in the family for a while.

We had a '72 Estate Wagon that my dad bought in '85. I grew up in that car and it was one of the first cars I learned to drive in. We sold it in 2002 to a man in PA for $1200. He was a wagon collector and said he was going to restore it.....I hope it didn't end up in a derby!!!

not saying this is what happened, but 1200 isnt as crazy as you might think for one of those cars to derby....round here they're about the strongest car you can legally run in the derby....

Besides what's in the garage, I like working in the yard, and taking the F150 on day-trips with the wife. If I had the time I'd build a big layout in the basement for my American Flyer trains from the 50's.

Husband and kids come first in the extra curricular zone. Then it is my horses, We barrel race at playdays and rodeos and love every minute of it. My 59 Ford P/U and horse trailer on on the restoration blocks. I love painting the rooms in my house to match the personality of who resides in that zone or what its used for. I also love to volunteer and do fund raising. And last but def not least I love being in here. Y'all are so sweet.

ZRX- Freelance Gyno? you are too funny I was drinking my oj when I read that and i almost lost it. I dated a guy after my ex husband and I divorced and one day I went to his ranch to pick up his horses for a rodeo and when he was giving me the tour of his spacious ranch house He opened the door to his bedroom and in one corner of his room was a gyno table complete with stirrups. he just looked at me and smiled. I said well the only stirrups you are going to see my feet in are those connected to my saddle as i am riding away from you as fast as I can. I never spoke to him again and I passed the word at the arenas. I still can see his creepy smile. shudder. I laugh about it now but then it was creepy. Okay nuff said.

Well after spending time with the family its is go-kart racing. But most of the time family time and racing go together. Go-karting is such a family sport at home and away from the track.

A FAMILY THAT RACES OGETHR STAYS TOGETHER

Used to be heavy into antique tractors and old one-lunger engines. But have kinda left that hobby behind for the time.
My other current (other) love is my '84 Mercedes SD turbo-diesel. I'm a big participator over at www.mercedesshop.com

Well, besides anything automotive-related, my other big love is music. I play guitar, mandolin, tenor banjo, piano, accordian, and a few others. I am also a Luthier. I build and repair stringed instruments. I have been learning to draw, and like doing ceramics. I love watching movies. And of course, working on computers. I have so many interests, and so little time...! -TD
