Yea First this is kind of what I had in mind. It would be nice to see this chapter get a leader and have fellow bc'ers be able to join the chapter, then we could work on some meets and so forth. My name is Chris and I live in Princeton (the town with no traffic lights and if you can't buy it at Fields you probably don't need it and by the time you get somewhere where you can buy it you have forgotten you need it.) I live with my wife and two spoiled dogs. Have two girls both grown up enough to leave the nest.

I didn't get out to look at that truck this weekend Joe. Drove down to the Vancouver area and drove back the same night. Took about 3 1/2 hrs from Hope to Princeton.

My name is Jim and I live in Smithers. Next door to you Dave. I am 30, married, have a daughter, and work for the gov't. My current rig is in my sig below and before this one I had a F250 diesel and a 80 chev that got me through highschool and college and moved my sorry butt up here, but then it was done and at that point I could afford to get into a real truck.

I love hunting (hence the callsign) and fishing is a past time until hunting season starts. A meet in 2007 would be great to put some faces to names.
