Evenin' all. Hope your day has gone well.

Danny... be careful.

We picked 7-1/2 gallons of blueberries this morning - FREE - and almost half a gallon of blackberries... lots of lemon lbueberry jam, canned bleberries in syrup, frozen blueberries for blueberry crisp, and a little blackberry jam. We'll probably go back next weekend and get some more for the freezer. We had a blast picking together this morning.

I've been busy the past couple of hours printing out my oldest daughter's HS grduation announcements and graduation photos... she's growing up.

Gotta run. You folks be careful and have fun.

But, the truck is good to go for another 7k or so.

I also managed to "fix" my toolbox. I just found some latches that will allow me to keep the top closed. Getting ready to go out there and put it in the back of the truck.

I have a nice little aftermarket step that I am trying to install on the tailgate..and holy cow, that metal is some tough $h*t. I keep breaking screws.....

You look better on a bad day ( if this is bad in the pic) than most any gal looks on a good day.

here's the deal though, the ***** ten will get much better gas mileage than the ford especially with the ford having 4.10s for gearing. and insurance might be cheaper on the S10, and the S10 would be a whole lot easier to park. but the ford will be more of a mudding machine, especially when I weld up the rearend.




felt like adding the bacon thing for the hell of it.

World's shortest fairy
tale...

Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl
'Will you marry me?'
The girl said,
'NO!' And the guy lived
happily ever after and rode
motorcycles and went fishing and
hunting and played golf a lot
and drank beer and scotch and had
tons of money in the bank and
left the toilet seat up and farted
whenever he wanted.

The
End.
