Everyone is behind on farm work. My brother and family are about done calving.

Rob I like the bumper too. UP close there are quite a paint chips and dings. So some day I will repaint that. The previous owner put a louder exhaust and KN airfilter and intake. I love the way it sounds.

I think I know which one you are talking about there. There are a couple of dozen bump sides in and around Pierre.

Its warm enough here for me to wear just shorts for motorcycle riding. I took the VW on road trip out to Murdo and got like 40 MPG with a fuel leak and going 65-70 most of the way. 60mph is what i should cruise at but i was in rush to get back home. oh well i guess

That'd be a good event to have a G2G at... I'm thinking about coming, gotta check with the wifey to see if I can get away or if she and the kids want to come too. I'd like to bring the 79 and enter it in the Show and Shine...
