The casino sounds like a nice day, if my daughter is feeling better I'll be doing the leaf removal and cleaning the truck tomorrow. Don't know what the wife has planned for Sunday yet.

Next weekend we are having our Chapter GTG at a Micro Brewery, hopefully everyone that signed up comes, it should be a good one.
I was BEAUTIFUL here today, 63 and sunny, a little windy but not bad at all. I'll take this weather on the 6th of Nov. anytime.

Troy I haven't started on the Caddy yet but thanks for asking. The back is stopping me right now from proceeding but hopefully soon. I just received my second parts catalog for it and can get pretty much whatever I need for parts which is a good thing.

tourists....

wow so whats with all the tourists in the post? nice to see them spending thier time in out fair state (forum). I'm just happy lately to have my truck back working, its been working great since i put in the new motor and has been hauling at least twice a week. I figure i can get up to 20 MPG on the road (unconfirmed) and currently got about 14 the other day but i run around on 140 extreme alot around town and its really hilly up here so i figure if i drive like I have an egg under the pedal i might break 16 or better in town.

Well did anybody watch that race this afternoon? I was happy to see the points tighten up a little! I would love to see Mark win this thing! Anybody other than Jimmie!

You know I just watched the new Ford commercial with Mike Rowe, I guess pitching ford is a "Dirty Job" but somebody's got to do it. Thanks much Mike.
