Cool! I can't plan that far ahead, but I do have the benefit of a place to stay without making a reservation. I'm pretty sure we'll be able to go, even if the wife has to work, I told her I'm going without her.

I haven't been there since I was a kid. My aunt used to live in the mountains above boulder, she had an awesome place up there. But, she got tired of the drive to boulder for work everyday.

Hey Kenny. How goes it? Good Evening Jack. We had a pretty big storm front come through last night, shook things a little.

I've been up through Tahoe, Doug. It's beautiful up there!

Hey Pat & Rob:
Just got home - had a LONG DAY today. Got to work today at 7:15 am - had a presentation over lunch, Tool Sale all day, BBQ at the store tonight, Cleaned up and everything put away and home by 10:00 - so only a 15 hour day. Oh yea - had to fire a guy today - which is never a positive thing - but hey thats part of management - Your the dumbest guy there and everything is your fault - I LOVE IT! OK - No more complaining.

Where you staying Pat? Did you get my message about parking your trailer? I have plenty of places available to you. If yo can't park your trailer at your Motel, you can park your trailer at my store or at my warehouse. I also got the flyers for Cruise night this evening so I will try and scan it in and post it on my Cruise Night Gallery. Looking forward to seeing that Mustang!

Evening George. Just got your pm. Hey, we're staying at the Country Inn and Suites. I'll let you know about the trailer, I appreciate the offer! I'll have to get ahold of you when I get to town. Hey, if you can get that flyer up, that would be great!

That sucks about having to fire that guy. I'm sure that's pretty uncomfortable for you...unless of course, you couldn't wait to do it!!LOL!

I'd like to get out that way sometime for vacation Jack, I've never been up to the Oregon/Washington area. Gotta get the Disneyland/Disneyworld vacations done the next couple of years for the kids. I'm hoping to do those in February/March, since I'm not a big fan of waiting two hours for everything!

Young Kid - I had a way worked out for him where he could make it right and keep his job - but his testosterone got in the way of his listening - so I cut the cord. He evidently didn't understand Big Customers are harder to come by than delivery drivers.

If I didn't have to deal with personel issues I would skip to work everyday. Of course I actually like going to work - I get to walk into a store filled with "Toys" and talk to "Car" guys every day.

They have a lot of fun things lined up for Cruise Nite - I will get it posted tomorrow night if I can figure out how to Scan on my Printer - Its been awhile since I have done that.

I'd like to get a job like that after I retire from here. I'd like to get out of here by the time I'm 56, then do something just to keep me from going crazy at home!

LOL!! I hear ya' George! I've certainly mellowed a bit over the last few years, I guess 40 does that to you. Of course, being a little less crazy doesn't mean we still can't have our toys and our fun!
