Catfish are you fueled up and loaded that gooseneck yet I was thinking since diesel prices have dropped we could add to the list.

Dave, It's funny you say mountain Christmas, My dad's people are from Keyser, WV . HE's retired military and We moved to Florida when I was 12, 35 now Florida is all I know anymore, and I know it's not as nice as I remember as a kid, and I live in a small ag town and live 30 minutes outside town. The old Christmas' of even 20 - 25 years ago are no longer around, and the kids of today are really missing something special. My wish for all of the really nice folks on FTE is a safe new year for ya'll and your families. Merry Christmas to all,
Chuck

The real sad part of it is in a lot of places and minds in our great country Merry Christmas is now socially unacceptable they want happy holidays instead.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

Everything is a go but the problem is he doesn't use diesel. I can help out but his main fuel is alfalfa hay. It hasn't gone down.

It never hurts to ask though.

Hope everybody has a good Christmas season.

If you don't celebrate the holiday then have a good day.

I can say I have my family (dogs included) and friends and don't really need anything else. There will always be stuff I want and it will be an endless list. If I had to make a list, I would put a FTE sticker for my truck. Maybe I could attract more good people to the site and show my pride at the same time. It's always nice to get on here and swap ideas, see what everyone is doing and how they are doing. I could only wish my extended family would talk and congregate as much as all the good people on here do. My family and I wish your family and you the best for Christmas. Merry Christmas!

Hoping that the housing industry and the economy in general will come out of the slump and the price of timber goes back up so I can go back to the woods and start logging again.

Other than that, just want my family to be healthy and safe in the coming years.

And for the selfish wants, I would like the brackets and the transmission adaptor to finally install my 24V Cummins into the Ford. Now that I have lots of time, I don't have the money. Oh well, at least the old 7.3 is still going.

Merry Christmas,
Jason

I only wish for two things:

1) a decent job (got school loans to pay)

2) a girl who's willing to see past the best friends thing

That's it.
