Smile Met Bdox Today

Bruce & his Brother were passing through my way and dropped by for a visit. Too short of a visit if you ask me. I love meeting people from FTE.

Very nice guys. Thanks for dropping in and ya all are welcome back anytime.

So far I've had the pleasure of meeting Monsterbaby, TheWiz, now Bruce and several guys that are no longer on FTE.

I had to search for what Vic Embers was before I could respond.

How about some 1 1/2" thick steaks on the grill with grilled garlic potatoes and a pitcher or two of frozen margaritas (Steve makes the best).

Id go for the margaritas about now Carlene.
I love it when we get to meet people from our online worlds. i have met so many from my horse and rodeo sites. We all meet up when rodeos are in town, trail rides etc next week there is about 12 horse people staying here just to have a pajama night. In other words bullsnot session that goes all night and most everyone in PJs.

I need to have an FTE one here one night.

(by the way carlene I owe you huge hug when we meet)

Now that is something I would like to do. I don't know if the world would be in better shape when we were done...but it would be fun trying to solve all the problems with him.

Maybe even invite Bush over for a beer summit with Bruce...

Funny...I've BS'd with Bruce a bit on the forum but never met him in person, and he lives only about 4 hours from me. I guess I really should make the effort next time I'm up that way...(which will be in September when I run the Rubicon trail with my 4X4 club...)

Well how the heck did I miss this? It must have gone to page two while I was away from my internet access.

Thanks for all the kind words. Hey Dan, have you made your Rubicon run already? I'm home now and will be for a few weeks yet.

I look forward to meeting FTE folks, but I keep telling them where I'll be and it gives them time to hide out! But I'll keep trying.

And thanks Carlene for the welcome. I loved meeting with you. I was fascinated seeing your place. You two certainly have the coolest home shop I have seen yet!!!
