Howdy Dusty. If the bolt pattern's the same, could he use his old bell then? Always thought big blocks had a different bolt pattern, never knew that.

Field trip this afternoon. Woke up & couldn't go back to sleep. Another argument with Arthur last night. Field trip this afternoon. Busy season right now, almost over. I'm guessing maybe 1 - 2 more weeks of getting one every day & then it's almost the end of school. No summer school ( except mandatory make up ) this year. School's broke ( as usual ), were doing a thing every summer for elementary & middle school they called " Summer Enrichment " program. First year, all the elementary kids got a gift card ( I think Wally World ) if they attended every day. 1 kid got a go-cart, think another one got a TV. They had something for the middle school kids too.
